The City has maintenance programs to preserve the service life of infrastructure assets. The largest program is the Roadway Maintenance, Roadway Drainage Pipe, Guardrail, and Concrete Repair Program. Other maintenance programs include Citywide Traffic Signal System Maintenance, Bridge Maintenance, and Capital Project Maintenance.
The road maintenance costs per major work items are summarized below. For each work item, the total expenditure for the past three years and through the third quarter of 2024 is provided. A drawdown chart is also presented for these road maintenance activities. The chart shows the annual allocation in blue, along with the actual and projected monthly expenditures in red, and cumulative balance for the program in green. As the year progresses, the program balance decreases as activities are completed, representing the drawdown. The program plans work and associated expenditures annually to maximize use of available funds.
Detailed reports of asset and material quantities are also provided. Appendix B contains the completed on-call ADA replacement items and a summary of contracts active in the third quarter of 2024.

Drawdown
The chart shows the annual allocation in blue, the actual and projected monthly expenditures in red, and the cumulative balance for the program in white. As the year progresses, the program balance decreases as activities are completed, representing the drawdown. The program plans work and associated expenditures annually to maximize use of available funds; however, a small percentage of the annual allocation is typically carried into the next year and is applied to ongoing maintenance activities.
Amounts in the drawdown are estimates.
