STREET MAINTENANCE & PROJECTS

Proper street maintenance is a top priority for the City of Bartlesville, and efforts are made to continually identify needs and allocate general funds for on-going maintenance projects

Prioritization of street projects are based on engineering data consisting of but not limited to:

• Functional use
• Traffic counts
• Pavement condition assessment and deterioration models
• City staff input regarding the likely causes of the pavement distress or deterioration and the recommended repair combined with the anticipated project cost

STREET PROJECT SELECTION

• The Pavement Management Analysis Report*
• Recommendations from the Street and Traffic Committee
• Citizen complaints
• Internal/staff assessment of road use and condition and considering whether or not it is likely to cause damage to vehicles and consideration of whether the roadway is an arterial street or not

Also, an effort is made to complete projects in all five of the City’s wards on a regular basis.

*Long-term planning is based on the Pavement Management Analysis Report, an in-depth report on the condition of the city’s streets and how to best manage repairs and rehabilitation based on an analysis performed by IMS Infrastructure Management Services of Tempe, Arizona.
