Based on the scientific definition of highway asset value and adopting comparative analysis and hierarchical analysis, present return value method was determined as the scientific method for highway asset value assessment. Taking one of the domestic highways as the assessment object and using statistical analysis method, this paper empirically analyzed the practical application of present return value method in highway asset evaluation. The research suggests that the evaluation theory of present return value method follows the connotation of the highway asset value. Present return value method to assess the highway asset value is practically feasible, and also is helpful to maximize the realization of highway asset value.
