During severe winter conditions bridges freeze before the roadways, usually catching unsuspecting drivers off guard. To mitigate the issue, some state transportation agencies have successfully implemented automatic bridge deck anti-icing systems. This study documented the research performed to develop a decision-aid tool for Nebraska to prioritize bridges for the most efficient installation. As part of the research, the benefits of automatic bridge deck anti-icing systems in other states were evaluated.
