A new pavement condition report shows San Diego's overall score for roads has dropped from satisfactory to poor, with several roads less than a 10 out of 100.
SAN DIEGO — Fixing streets across the City of San Diego is a long, bumpy road, but on Tuesday City Councilmembers heard recommendations to improve our roads. “A total need of 1.9 billion dollars is needed over the next 10 years,” said Bethany Bezak, the department’s director. And that's not to make our streets perfect, that's just to get them back up to an overall rating of satisfactory.
According to a recent pavement condition report, San Diego’s road rating has now dropped into the fair category. Councilmembers heard from several agencies, including the Transportation Department, the City Auditor, and the Independent Budget Analyst. They looked at three options:Fix the roads that impact the most people – which is also expensive, but not as costly
“We as a city council want to take a deep dive and make sure we're doing the right thing to address our roads going forward,” Whitburn said.
