Title
2013 Road Improvement Program - Proposal
History
Historically, the Capital Roadway Maintenance Program consists of the annual Road Improvement Program (repaving, miscellaneous pavement patching and infrastructure repairs), the Pneumatic Concrete Repair Program, the Pavement Marking Program and the Roadway Crack Filling Program. The Road Improvement portion of the Roadway Maintenance Program is bid each year. The other programs are bid on a multi-year basis and have previously gone before the Board. These programs encompass $300,000 of the Capital Roadway Maintenance Program funds.
Streets in various subdivisions throughout the Village have been selected by staff for resurfacing based upon condition analysis. In addition to pavement-related work, failed curbs are replaced or repaired on an as-needed basis and hazardous sidewalks are replaced. As an additional part of the Road Improvement Program, storm sewer underdrains will be installed in various locations within areas where excessive groundwater has or may cause premature pavement failure. This project also includes significant patching throughout the Village to prolong the service life of adjacent pavement sections.
