STREETS & BRIDGES PROJECTS
Streets & Bridges Project Info
“Mill and Overlay” is a term used to describe rehabilitation of an asphalt street. The top two inches of asphalt is milled off (removed) and then two inches of new asphalt are “overlaid” on top of the remaining existing asphalt.
“Concrete Panel Replacement” is a term used to describe rehabilitation of a concrete street. Concrete streets have “panels” separated by defined joints in the concrete pavement. These “panels” can be removed and replaced. The concrete can also be cut to create new “panels” to allow flexibility in how much concrete is actually replaced.
“Asphalt Reconstruction” is how we are explaining that we are taking an existing street in poor condition and completely reconstructing the pavement. In the case of the projects proposed in the 2026 G.O. Bond, the existing pavement is concrete that is too damaged to justify a Concrete Panel Replacement. The intent with the reconstruction is to saw cut the pavement to isolate the curb and gutter and leave that in place. Then we will remove the concrete pavement and reconstruct with an asphalt pavement section. This will be identical to what was recently completed on Yale Drive between Adams Blvd and Frank Phillips Blvd. Going back with asphalt is less expensive than replacing with concrete.
“EOP” is defined as the “End of Project,” which is used for streets that end in a dead end or cul-de-sac.

Preventative Maintenance Streets — $550,000 (GO BOND)
This is part of an ongoing program that calls for the City to invest annually in preventative street maintenance. These streets are selected based on the Pavement Condition Index, which identifies streets that are in need of maintenance before serious problems arise. The PCI is an industry standard and is used by most municipalities to keep streets from falling into severe states of disrepair, as it is much more costly to taxpayers to repair streets at this stage. The majority of the funds for this program are proposed as part of the ½-cent CIP Sales Tax extension, with $550,000 proposed as part of the General Obligation Bond package. Preventive maintenance street projects are recommended by the Street & Traffic Committee each year and approved by City Council as part of the fiscal year capital budget.
