Hotel in Asheville, North Carolina on May 26, 2022. The peer exchange report is available here. Preface: The 2nd Geotechnical Asset Management Peer Exchange (GAMPE) was held at the Renaissance Hotel in Asheville, North Carolina on May 26, 2022 following the 71st annual Highway Geology Symposium and the TRB midyear committee meeting earlier in the week. These events brought together people interested in the deployment of Geotechnical Asset management (GAM) to improve safety and mobility on the nation’s transportation corridors. The first GAMPE was held at the headquarters of the College of Engineers and Surveyors of Puerto Rico in San Juan, Puerto Rico on August 27 and 29, 2019, and was organized by the Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority and the Federal Highway Administration. Similar to the first exchange, the focus of the 2022 event was to increase awareness and knowledge of current GAM practices through real-world examples and lessons learned shared and discussed among participants. Discussions also included current trends, future plans, and resource needs for GAM implementation. The GAMPE event was held from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and involved introductory and closing remarks from the organizers, updates from several state transportation agencies regarding ongoing GAM efforts, and a mix of whole-group and breakout discussions. Representatives and spokespersons from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), state transportation agencies, and private engineering firms participated in the discussions.
