| dc.description.abstract | The challenge to sustain railways is driven by the ability to optimise the utilization of the asset base. It demands the establishment of a continuous asset improvement process and program that requires maintenance personnel to continuously improve their understanding of the infrastructure's performance and the relevance of the configuration to this performance. A successful asset management process incorporates these elements and results in the optimisation of the infrastructure life cycle by extending useful life while minimising the operational interference thereby increasing capacity. | en |
