Numerous factors cause damage to the road so that the remaining service life of the existing pavement and long-term road maintenance are unpredictable. The aims of this paper are to evaluate the condition of the road performance and damages and to calculate the remaining service life of the pavement on East Line of South Sumatera, as well as examining the relationship between these two values. This research includes the evaluation of five sections of the route with a various damaged condition and detailed appraisal of road conditions using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI), while the prediction of the remaining service life using the deflection data acquiring from Falling Weight Deflectometer measurements. The correlation of PCI value and remaining life service, intellectually established, created regression model to obtain the relationship and the correlation coefficient. The outcomes demonstrated that the road segments I, II, III, IV, and V have a PCI value of 56.1 (good), 37.8 (poor), 9.3 (very good), 39.0 (poor), and 95.0 (excellent) respectively and the remaining service lives sequentially are 2.39 years, 0.65 years, 4.43 years, 0.11 years and 3.57 years. The correlation between the PCI value and the service life of the pavement is y = 4,1872ln (x) -14.728, with the correlation coefficient is 0.88 which strong level of relationship.
