Project Description
The construction of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Annual Citywide Street Resurfacing Project is scheduled to commence on August 26 with the anticipated completion by early February 2025. This project will construct up to 44 streets covering ten centerline miles of asphalt pavement, including two miles of asphalt overlay and/or pavement reconstruction, and eight miles of pavement preventative maintenance (microsurfacing).
The street resurfacing project includes replacement of uplifted curb and gutter, sidewalk, and installation of new curb ramps, adjustment of existing utility manholes, replacement of signal loop detectors; and installation of striping and raised pavement markers.
Justification:
This project is consistent with the City Council’s goals to improve, maintain and enhance public facilities and infrastructure, and to improve mobility and accessibility throughout the City. It also supports the Public Facilities Element of the General Plan by maintaining public facilities to enhance the quality of life of the community.
Additionally, the systematic resurfacing at regular intervals prolongs the service life of roadway pavement, and significantly lowers the cost of maintaining paved public streets by reducing the need for full reconstruction.
