SUBJECT: NCDOT Road Resurfacing Priorities DEPARTMENT: Planning PUBLIC HEARING: (YlN) No ATTACHMENT(S): 1. February 20, 2001 Letter from C: Kimes 2. List of Cun-ent Year's Projects 3. Draft Letter to NCDOT District Engineer INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen Lincoln, ext. 259 Paul Thames, ext. 2303 TELEPHONE NUMBERS: Hillsborough 732-8181 Chapel HIII 968-4501 - Durham 688-7331 Durham 688-7331 PURPOSE: To consider a list of roads the County would like the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) District Office to recommend for resurfacing. BACKGROUND: Each year, the NCDOT District Office provides the NCDOT Division Office with a recommendation for roads to be resurfaced during the upcoming fiscal year. Resurfacing recommendations are based on pavement condition surveys that are executed every two years. NCDOT engineers survey every state-maintained road and note pavement characteristics, problems and types of pavement failures. The surveys are rated in acomputer-generated report that rates all roads according to pavement condition with 100% being best condition. Resurfacing recommendations are selected from roads generating the lowest ratings, and the list is restricted by a dollar amount equal to the previous year's resurtacing allocation. This year, for the first time, the County has been invited to submit any known resurfacing needs to the District Office to be evaluated and considered when the District Engineer composes his list of resurtacing recommendations for summer 2002. A list of this year's resurtacing recommendations is attached. All resurtacing projects on the attached list have been let and are expected to be completed this year. Staff is compiling information on county roads to make a recommendation for the Board to consider. Neither planning staff nor the County Engineer have received requests for resurfacing state- maintained roads or complaints of poor pavement conditions. Therefore, staff is soliciting input from Emergency Management Services and the Sheriffs Department, county agencies that are most familiar with conditions on all roads throughout Orange County. Staff will present information submitted by those agencies and county maps depicting any road segments recommended for resurfacing. FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact associated with this decision item. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Administration recommends that the Board discuss resurfacing needs and submit a letter to NCDOT District Engineer listing Orange County's resurfacing recommendations. 04/06/1994 08:30 13366706873 NCDOT GRAHAM DIST PAGE 02 ~~` 4 r .y~~ S'TA'I'>i OF NORTI i CAROLINA I~EPARTMEN~' OF TRANSPORTATION MICHAEL t+. ~A5Ll:Y LYNAD TIPPETI' GOVERNOR SF,CREraRY February 2U, 2UU 1 ORANGE COCNTY Mr. John M.
