Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Dear Authors,
Please find attached the file with my suggestions.
I would recommend to review the quality of the presentation, with an extensive review of the English language and avoiding to provide multiple times the same info, when they are not strictly needed.
I would also recommend to be focused on the message you want to pass to the readers, both researchers and practitioners. The feeling is that a little step is missed to provide to the readers a general method to be used, with some remarked limitation due to the local calibration needs.

Reviewer 2 Report
Dear authors,
paper on"Evaluation and Correction Method of Asphalt Pavement Rut- 2 ting Performance Prediction Model Based on RIOHTrack Long- 3 term Observation Data" is good topic and under the scope of journal. However, the paper needs improvements as below:
1- introduction: please try to more research papers to show the research gap. And please try to show the novelty of this current study.
why authors uses the long-term observation data of RIOHTrack full-scale 85 pavement structure to carry out the accuracy analysis of the rutting performance prediction model?? add clarification.
figure 6; need strong discussion and please try to compare the results with previous new research and show the improvement.
conclusion, line 415"(5) After local correction, the rutting prediction model in which the basic data has reflected the characteristics of different pavement structures and materials.." how ??? add clarification and more details.
please add future work as it will help the readers. Any recommendation ? please add.
