County Council has approved a 2023 Road Rehabilitation Program that includes more than $18 million for road projects and nearly $3 million for paved shoulder projects.
These projects have been approved in advance of full Budget approval to allow for early tendering, which provides the County the opportunity to take advantage of off-season prices while developing and coordinating work schedules with less conflict, and undertaking bridge construction outside of environmental restriction windows.
Road rehabilitation projects that have been approved total $18,630,300 and include:
- 13 road rehabilitation projects
