This exploratory study analyzed crash and pavement data to examine pavement reliability performance (PRP) for seasonal temperature changes in U.S. State Y. The term PRP is a general term, and the NCHRP 500 report series were used for this study. PRP was examined for three pavement types: Pave 1 - asphalt overlay on flexible pavement; Pave 2 - asphalt overlay on rigid pavement; Pave 3 - jointed plain concrete. This study recommends further research for asphalt surface property sensitivity to temperature, and the impact of pavement surface temperature on pavement reliability using analysis of crash data.
