This project began with the investigation of all the faults that exist in the different types of pavements that were located in the area, then a survey of information was carried out for which each of the streets under study was traveled, for this purpose a manual Global Positioning System (GPS) was used, in addition, technical data sheets were used in which the faults are detailed with their respective information such as the level of severity, Afterwards, using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) method, the condition of the pavement was calculated and the best method for its conservation was determined, as well as the referential budget for its maintenance or repair, as appropriate.
