The City of Rogers’ Pavement Management Program is designed to track the condition of City streets and to outline the costs associated with regular street maintenance projects including reconstructions, mill and overlay, concrete and storm sewer repairs, and utility relocation.
The City’s roads currently have an average Overall Condition Index (OCI) rating of 80, with the goal of maintaining an average OCI of 70-80.
Although the City is on the higher end of the OCI ratings, due to the large amount of street construction that occurred during a short time frame, there will be significant and costly street maintenance needs in the upcoming years. In being proactive, the City Council believes a long-term funding method is necessary to address the maintenance of this infrastructure.
In 2015, the Rogers City Council authorized the use of franchise fees to fund a pavement management program within the City of Rogers. The Pavement Management Program plans and prioritizes necessary street rehabilitation and reconstruction of existing paved City streets to extend the life of the paved road.
