BACKGROUND
The Pavement Restoration project has typically been budgeted in the Pavement Management
project in the Five Year Capital Improvement program. The work consists of removal and
replacement of specific areas of pavement on various streets where the pavement surface or the
underlying pavement has failed or shows evidence of imminent failure.
In contrast to the ongoing pavement maintenance work of filling potholes and cracks in City
streets that is done by City forces, this annual project is programmed to make more significant
repairs of specific areas of pavement failure. Typically, the work involves cutting out and
removing areas of failed pavement to a depth of four to six or more inches, recompacting the
underlying material and reconstructing the removed areas with new asphalt pavement. All of the
City's streets are reviewed and locations in need of this type of repair are measured and recorded
for this proj ect.
