Fairfax Roads -
Now
• The Town scored a 55 out of 100 for
our overall average Pavement
Condition Index (PCI)
• Fairfax roads are ranked the worst
for municipalities within Marin
County
• Spending $500K/year will result in a
PCI of 51 over the next 5 years
*Developed by the U. S. Army Corp of Engineers during World War II and standardized by ASTM, the PCI is an objective and rational basis for determining pavement condition and establishing maintenance priorities.
