• What are pavement conditions statewide?
• How much will it cost to maintain pavements?
Bridges? Essential components?
• What is the funding shortfall?
• What is impact of different funding scenarios?
Study Objectives
3. Local Streets Huge Part of State Network
81% of California’s
pavements are owned
by cities and counties!
10. Statewide Trends
2008
71- 80 (Good)
50-70 (At Risk)
0 -49 (Poor)
Pavement Condition Index
2012
87% of counties
have average
rating of “at risk”
or “poor”
19. Pavement Funding Scenarios
1. Existing funding ($1.33 billion/year)
2. Transportation CA measure ($1B/yr)
a. Bond i.e. $4.23 billion/year for first 5
years, $1.33 billion for next 5 years
b. No bond i.e. $2.33 billion/year
3. Maintain current PCI at 66
4. Efficiency scenario
5. Best mgmt practices
20. 1. Existing Funding ($1.33 B/year)
PCI drops to 53
Unfunded backlog grows to $66 B
21. 2a. No bond ($2.33 B/year)
PCI drops to 60
Unfunded backlog grows to $50 B
35. Conclusions
• Transportation system is not great and it’s not
getting better
– 25% of roads will be failed in 10 years
– 38% of bridges will be structurally deficient
• Additional funding required to hold infrastructure
together
• Deferring repairs will cost much more later!
For overlay and reconstruction, used 2008 unit costs.

Los Angeles, 2009Image: A fire truck plunged into a sinkhole in the Valley Village neighborhood of Los Angeles in September 2009. Four firefighters escaped injury after their fire engine sank into a large hole caused by a burst water main in the San Fernando Valley, authorities said.
