Analysis of the Level of Road Damage Using the Surface Distress Index Method and Evaluation and Handling of Cracked Roads (Case Study: Jalan Ciherang Cutak-Jalan Suka Mulya, Ciomas District, Bogor Regency. The existence of roads is very necessary to support the rate of agricultural and other economic growth, considering the important benefits So the road construction and maintenance sector is a priority for research and development in planning, implementation and maintenance.
