Pavement Management Program Update


OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
recommendation
The pavement strategic plan was completed by Perteet Inc. using a one-time allocation of $40,000 in the 2025-2026 biennium. The plan uses 2025 pavement condition data, together with historical City pavement data, to model future pavement conditions under various funding scenarios, recommend funding levels aligned with nationally recognized PCI targets, and identify appropriate pavement treatments.

The City has invested steadily in its pavement network over the years. As the network has aged, our overall PCI now stands at 68 (Fair), just short of the Transportation Master Plan's target of 70 and the Pavement Strategic Plan's recommended target of 71. Principal Arterials, our highest-priority corridors, average a PCI of 64, with 38% of those lane-miles in need of attention, representing our biggest opportunity to protect the investment we've already made. Acting now positions the City to achieve the level of service goal of 71 PCI with a long-term goal of 75 PCI.

Deferring investment will increase long-term costs. Pavement at a PCI of 55 costs four to six times more to rehabilitate than pavement at PCI 75. The Pavement Management Strategic Plan and accompanying Implementation Plan establish a complete inventory of existing conditions, evaluate future outcomes under various funding scenarios, and provide an actionable roadmap for strategic investments that will preserve the City's $450 million roadway asset.
