Abstract. Road construction has a positive impact on the growth of economic businesses and
people's income; although it is not felt quantitatively by the community, from a macro
perspective, it increases Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) significantly. So, ideally,
the entire road network in an area must be managed well and evenly. However, the regional
government's budget will only be able to fund some maintenance or improvements to existing
roads. Conditions like this require prioritization of road management based on regional
conditions. This research aims to prioritize road management with a case study in Purwodadi
Regency, Central Java Province, Indonesia. Prioritization uses a spatial analysis approach with
several spatial indicator variables of economic conditions: the accessibility index, the ratio of
road length to regional area, the independent village index, and the disadvantaged village index.
The method used to analyze is multi-criteria overlay analysis (MCOA). MCOA
allocates/prioritizes spatial objects (road networks) to suit certain purposes based on various
attributes the selected spatial objects must have. The research results can show the road
management priorities at the research location based on attribute/spatial variable influences
(thematic map). Road networks in areas with a low economic index are a top management
priority.
