The Bexar County Public Works Department are utilizing advanced equipment to address improvements on the roadway.
The studies are conducted every three to five years and have been used since 2007. The vans initially observed just under 1,000 county-maintained miles.
However, as the county has grown, so has the effort. The study now covers over 1,500 miles of maintained roads. The goal is to determine the condition of the roads and forecast budgeting for strategic infrastructure. Tony Vasquez works with Public Works. He said they hope these efforts will improve the quality of life for people out in the county.
“It’s a method that we use to rate all the county streets and come up with the right treatment for every street or the streets that are needed as well as the budget that we need to maintain the roads in the county,” he said.Copyright 2023 by KSAT - All rights reserved.
