State Mandate Landscape
Tier 1 — Mandates
States with PMP Requirements
California SB 1 — PMP required to access $1.5B/yr in local street funding
Michigan TAMC — PASER surveys mandated across all 86,000 lane-miles statewide
Tier 2 — Incentives
States with Funding Advantages
Minnesota — PMP encouraged; state-aid roads benefit from data-driven prioritization
Washington — PMP demonstrates readiness for competitive state grants
Tier 3 — No Requirements
Opportunity Without Regulatory Push
Many states lack formal PMP mandates — but cities that adopt one gain a competitive edge in federal grant applications and demonstrate fiscal responsibility to councils and residents.
The modified approach requires condition assessments every three years and preservation cost disclosures. States using it invest more in maintenance with better outcomes (Brookings 2021). <5% of small cities currently use it — early adopters gain a significant compliance advantage.
Grant Competitiveness
Formal PMPs score higher on RAISE, SS4A, and state competitive grants because they demonstrate project readiness and data-driven planning. Reviewers reward applications backed by condition data, deterioration forecasts, and optimized capital plans.

Emerging Requirements
FHWA's 2024 proposed rulemaking adds climate resilience requirements to federally funded pavement projects. GAO's 2022 equity analysis signals future requirements for equitable pavement investment across underserved communities. InfraMind's constraint system handles both — model any variable, enforce any policy rule, and document compliance automatically.
