This paper presents the development of software in C++ Language for the determination of Pavement Condition Index (PCI) based on the design procedure mentioned in ASTM D 4433 and future requirement of maintenance of existing road /road network. Presently in India, Manual Pavement Condition survey has been replaced by automated Network Survey Vehicle (NSV). PCI procedure mentioned in ASTM D 4433 which needs uses of several curves and same curves have been converted in regression equations. These equations are used to prepare a Program in C++ Language. This will be useful for Pavement Engineer to determine PCI and maintenance strategy.
