Planned Street Repairs
The City of Jonestown manages over 33 miles of roadways within its jurisdiction. The City’s street maintenance program aims to preserve and improve the conditions of existing roadways by monitoring the state of its roadways and systematically repairing or repaving the top layers of City streets as needed.
The City prioritizes street maintenance based on the structural pavement condition of our roadways. Pavement Condition Assessments are performed city wide and ranked on a scale reflecting the pavement’s structural condition. We then use these assessments to prioritize areas in most urgent need of repair and resurfacing.
Road improvement construction will be completed the year after the project is approved by Council. For Street Maintenance Projects approved in 2023, road work will begin in 2024.
