This study aimed proposes application methods that serve as technical alternatives for a Pavement Management System (PMS) that reflects road management characteristics in Gangwon-do to achieve provincial road PMS. After the rapid growth of Korean road facilities in the 1970s and 1980s, the need for a maintenance budget has been emphasized due to aging infrastructure. Consequently, a proactive approach for pavement preservation, the PMS, was introduced. However, local governments managing provincial roads are experiencing difficulties in constructing and operating the PMS. To resolve these issues, this study analyzed the composition and operation methods of the PMS in Seoul City and National roads. Using these results, we suggested proposed developed solutions to challenges such as database construction, professional manpower and organization, budget and manpower shortages, and the absence of decision support systems that fail to reflect local characteristics budget and manpower. These results can assist local autonomous entities, such as Gangwon-do, in performing efficient road maintenance with limited budget and manpower. Furthermore, it the proposed system construction method resolves the existing PMS problems and enhances accessibility by utilizing the latest ICT technology, aiming which will contribute to establishing a future-oriented local road management system.
