  4. Town Road Improvement Project Summary • GOAL: • Develop a long-term road improvement plan to maintain, reconstruct where necessary, and guide the construction of new roads for the Town of Boulder Junction that is acceptable to the electorate. • BACKGROUND: • 64 miles (71%) of the town’s 93 total miles of roads have had little or no major reconstruction in recent history and are in need of repair. • Without a plan to properly recondition and maintain the town’s roads, deterioration will continue and the costs of reconstruction will continue to rise. 04_06_2017 DRAFT ONLY

  5. Town Road Improvement Project Summary GUIDING PRINCIPLES: • Grants and cost sharing by other entities will be pursued to offset any approved investment level. • All bid documents will include the appropriate levels of engineering specifications to promote competition and cost effectiveness. • Proper drainage determines the longevity of any road surface making it a key driver in selecting the appropriate surface material for any given road. • Any road reconstruction plan needs to include an appropriate level of additional funding for long-term maintenance. 04_06_2017 DRAFT ONLY
