    1. The document discusses 10 literature reviews related to road roughness, pavement conditions, and their impacts. Several papers found relationships between international roughness index (IRI), rut depth, speed, and factors like vehicle operating costs, safety, noise, and traffic accidents. Higher IRI values were found to generally increase accident risk and vehicle noise. 2. One study developed a road performance index to prioritize road maintenance based on pavement condition, safety, environmental impacts, and capacity. Another found ambulance patients are more exposed to vibration from road roughness. 3. The presence of public transportation was found to be a significant predictor of noise annoyance in urban areas, and vehicle noise increased with higher IRI at speeds between 20-50

    Literature Review:
    1. How to quantify human whole body vibration experienced by the driver
    and the passengers during the ride in relation to health and comfort. It
    is a relationship between road roughness, speeds, and vertical human
    body vibration. This relationship could be used to convert limits for
    whole body vibration to corresponding approximate limits for IRI. Also,
    if a road agency does not get a fair budget with respect to actual road
    repair works , the posted maximum speed for road users could be
    restricted until road repair has been funded and executed. The need of
    vulnerable people who often use public transport or emergency
    ambulance should be considered in policies regarding road roughness
    limits. Ambulance patients are more exposed to vibration energy.
    2. Tobit model: This model shows that a variety of factors relating to
    pavement condition and quality are found to significantly influence
    motor vehicle accident rates. These factors include IRI, rut depth,
    geometrical effects, volume and trucks have significant impact on
    accident rates. Applying the approach to other geographic areas and to
    non-interstate road segments would potentially provide more
    information on the effect that these factors have on road accident
    rates.
    3. This study analyses the presence of public transport at day time and
    night time as a significant and independent predictor of high noise
    annoyance. Future works should concern the presence, type and the
    number of public transport in order to reduce noise in urban areas.
    4. This paper studies the impact of road roughness on vehicle operating
    costs, safety , comfort and speed of travel.
    5. This paper studies the influence of road surface condition on traffic
    safety. In the accident model, the rut depth greater than 10 mm will
    not have any significant impact on traffic safety. The higher the IRI
    value , the higher the accident risk.
    6. This paper studies the influence of pavement conditions on traffic
    accidents. Pavement distress variables such as IRI, rut depth, and PSI
    are used to predict accidents.
    7. This paper studied the relationship between traffic accident and IRI and
    rut depth. In addition , it studied whether a deep rut lowers the flow
    rate of traffic than a shallow rut.
    8. This paper found out that on better roads , accident rate is higher than
    on worse roads. In summer, accident rate drops as rut depth increases
    while in winter the reverse is true.
    9. This paper implements a BBN model to develop road performance
    index(RPI) that can be used to prioritize the roads in a network system
    to meet high level management objectives. Four performance

    objective are selected to develop a RPI: 1. Pavement condition 2. Road


    safety 3.environment impacts 4. Capacity.
    10.
    The analysis of data shows that with the same speed, motor
    vehicles on urban roads have different noise levels because of different
    IRI. The motor vehicle noise increases as the IRI increases. It is
    concluded that pavement roughness of urban roads does contribute to
    noise in speed range between 20-50 km/hour with same IRI, and the
    noise level on cement pavement is greater than on asphalt.
