Pavement Preservation Program
Public Works staff routinely evaluates County roads to assess their pavement condition. Inspectors look for several specific road distresses, including road settlement, cracking, patching, potholes, and ride quality.
Treatment Options
- Routine Maintenanceincludes debris removal, street sweeping, and patching.
- Mill & Overlay:Some cases require replacing up to two inches of the existing asphalt with new asphalt.
- Full Depth Reconstructioncomplete removal and replacement of existing pavement surface and base.
Preserving pavement while in good/fair condition is less costly and can extend pavement life.
Future Targets
- 50% of roads in Good condition
- 30% of roads in Poor condition
- 0% of roads in Failed condition
Expected Outcomes
- Preserve roadways to extend useful life
- Improve roadway safety
Annual Inspection & Prioritization Process
27,000+individual roadway segments are inspected* for deficiencies on a 3-year cycle and assigned a pavement condition index (PCI) score** of 0-100.
The individual roadway segments are grouped into neighborhoods (Local roads) and corridors (Major roads).
- Local road groupsare prioritized in order of condition (PCI score).
- Major road groupsare prioritized by condition and traffic volume.
Data-driven modeling helps the County predict future pavement conditions based on its investment in preservation.
* Inspections are conducted in compliance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 34**PCI scores are aggregated into a weighted average (by area) for each group.
How does the County respond to road condition inquiries from residents?
- County staff investigates concerns and perform immediate patching or repairs as necessary.
- If necessary, it will be considered for overlay or reconstruction through the County’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
- While a roadway is scheduled for improvements, the pavement condition will be monitored and maintained.
- CIP resurfacing projects are planned annually and programmed based on annual budget.
