ABSTRACT
The national networks for transport and water management in the Netherlands developed over the past centuries. Many new structures were built. At present, the second decade of the 2lth century the net-works have matured and expansion is declining. The assets are ageing and an increasing number objects is expected to reach their end of lifetime the coming decades while their network functions are still needed. A systematic approach to assess the demand for the renewal need caused by end of service life was developed. This process is integrated in the state budget planning since 2012. The basis is an end of service life prediction for all objects in the networks. The paper describes the organizational aspects related to the development of the program for replacement and renovation. Among others the decision process to determine the budget for the executional program.
