The updated PMP emphasizes a proactive approach to pavement preservation and rehabilitation, with the goal of applying the right treatment to the right street at the right time. PCI is an important planning tool, but project selection also considers pavement age, maintenance history, observed distress, available funding, coordination opportunities, and engineering judgment. 3. Proposed Five-Year CIP. The proposed 2027–2031 program identifies approximately $1.695 million in anticipated transportation capital needs, including approximately $150,000 for crack sealing, $860,000 for pavement reclamation and rehabilitation projects, and $685,000 in anticipated local costs associated with Ramsey…
