The coastal highway networks have a pivotal impact on the economic prosperities, trades capabilities and social complexities of the entireWest African nations via sustainable transportation and logistics services. Dakar-Lagos section of the coastal highway had depreciated in value which depicts significant loss on investment of public infrastructure. The deteriorating condition of the infrastructure and its inability to effectively sustained movement of freight and passengers from Dakar-Senegal to Lagos Nigeria had reflected the poor performance of the transport infrastructure. In spite of this, growing capacity of heavy trucks and transporters across ECOWAS community countries further incapacitate the coastal highway infrastructure condition in the face of poorly defined asset management plans. Unsuitably managed highway asset despite huge public investment continuously increases maintenance frequency and often amount to resource wastage when the right roads were not given the right treatments and at the right time. This present study had proposed possible options to redress Trans-West Africa coastal highway infrastructure using the HDM-4 asset management tool and appraisal software. The deterioration model contained in HDM-4 was calibrated to local condition for development of pragmatic framework to optimally managedTrans-West Africa coastal highway sections. HDM-4 improved analysis models clearly projected appropriate maintenance options for optimal outcome and based on significant information of the transport infrastructure. © 2016 Taylor & Francis Group, London. date: 2016 publisher: CRC Press/Balkema official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85009765414&doi=10.1201%2fb21942-82&partnerID=40&md5=f18030c15b200a071f364585745af948 id_number: 10.1201/b21942-82 full_text_status: none publication: Engineering Challenges for Sustainable Future - Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Civil, offshore and Environmental Engineering, ICCOEE 2016 pagerange: 405-408 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781138029781 citation: Oloruntobi, O. and Madzlan, N. and Ibrahim, K. and Johnson, O.
