Remove Linear Asset Length Tool

The Remove Linear Asset Length tool is used to remove length from an asset record to reflect a change in the asset's structure. The amount of length removed will be subtracted from the measurements of the affected data.

Any data located entirely within the section being removed will be expired. For example, if you remove 3 miles from a roadway starting 4 miles from the start, a sign that was originally positioned 5 miles from the start will fall within the removed length and will be expired.

If the removed length falls between the start and end of a range, the length removed is subtracted from the range’s ending measurement, decreasing the length of the range. If the length removed includes one end of a range but not the other, the range will be truncated.

Note: "Remove Linear Asset Length" is a generic name for this form. The actual name will depend on the name of the agency-defined asset.
