Total Local & Neighborhood Streets 154
Total Combined Major + Local Streets 201
 4 Minor Contracts on Local Streets
9 135 Pavement Maintenance Zones
 Geographically contiguous
 Efficient planning and
delivery of paving projects
 Maximize work completed in
a neighborhood area
 Provide geographic
spread across the City
 Considers Equity Priority
Community as a tool in
planning phase

2026 Projects
 8 major construction projects (3 preparation,
2 sealing, 3 resurfacing)
 4 minor construction projects (preparation)
 Maintaining about 156 miles (including winter
suspension sealing streets)
 Total estimated contract amount: $50 million
 Focused on maintenance zones “poor to
failed” to maximize cost-effective treatment
 Approximately 1,234 miles expected to
be maintained from 2019-2026 (80% of
network)
12 Innovation
Sustainable & Green Infrastructure
Low Carbon Concrete
 Reduced carbon footprint up to 40% from baseline
for 6,000+ ADA curb ramps constructed since 2021
Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavement (PICP)
 Reconstructed failed concrete street with PICP
 Permeable paver surface built on top of opengraded aggregate-filled openings  Reduces stormwater runoff and pollutants while
providing a strong pavement and longer service life
Cape Seal Pavement
 A multi-layer preventative maintenance treatment
 Designed to seal present cracks, increase skid
resistance and improve color contrast for pavement
markings
 Reduced life cycle cost compared to HMA overlays
and Mill & Fills

Application of Cape Seal Treatment
Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines
DOT is taking into consideration impacts of future
PROWAG adoption
New requirements
 Dual directional ramps
 Crosswalk grade (2% or 5%)
 No pedestrian crossing signs
14 Budget implications for LS, MS
and ADA ramp request programs
Conclusion
 Investments have yielded results
 Major Street Network and Local &
Neighborhood Street Network both continue
to be rated as "Good”
 Local streets PCI continued to improve from
60 to 74 since 2018
 2027 maintenance backlog decreased by
about $721 million since 2017 projections
 Future pavement funding is expected to
 Decrease by 32% in 2028
 With uncertainty in gas tax with electrification
 And pavement condition WILL decline
 DOT ready to
 Deliver 201 miles of street pavement projects
in 2026
 Build capacity to plan, procure and deliver in
2027 and beyond
