The City of Portland has a proactive street reconstruction and repair program that is designed to maximize the life of our streets. At the start of the program, all streets and roadways maintained by the City were assessed with ground penetrating radar. Information from this assessment was used to calculate road condition scores. These scores are then used to determine when a roadway needs repairs and what type of repairs are needed. This systematic approach allows the City to optimize its resources and complete as many projects as possible.
