Area 1 Residential & Collector Streets Rehabilitation Project

Construction of the Area 1 project began this week on June 27 and it is scheduled to be completed by the end of August 2022. The project will improve 19 centerline miles of residential and collector streets with slurry seal, chip seal, localized asphalt concrete digouts, and curb ramp improvements as determined by field conditions in Area 1.

The project will also rehabilitate Golden Springs Drive form Brea Canyon Road to Lemon Avenue with AC grind and overlay, enhance bike lanes, signing and striping, and American with Disability Act (ADA) curb ramp improvements.

Pavement Management System Update

The City has completed the triennial update to the Pavement Management System (PMS) report. The (PMS) provides the tools to plan and schedule pavement maintenance and rehabilitation based on existing conditions and engineering analysis. Nichols Consulting Engineers, the consultant selected to complete the update, has prepared a report with the current roadway conditions and a 5-year roadway maintenance plan that best fits the City’s annual CIP budget.

The City will continue planning its future roadway projects based on the 7-year residential & collector street maintenance cycle and the recommendations provided in the PMS report.
