Busy Season Ahead
As you drive around our City, you'll notice we've got a busy
construction season ahead. We're now entering our second year, since the 10-Year Bond program was passed,
more than 15 miles have been repaired at a cost of $16 million. We're
happy to report--we're ahead of schedule and on-budget.
This
year approximately another 16 miles will be repaired including: five
arterial and major public safety corridors, two residential, a utility
match (done in three phases) and some local improvement districts (LIDs).
Some of the major projects are:

The Road to Repair
Since the 10-year Street Bond program was passed, 15.57 miles of streets
have been repaired out of the 110 miles that will be repaired throughout
the City of Spokane. Here's the breakdown: |
- 37 miles of major arterials and public safety corridors. These are complete
curb-to-curb rehabilitations.
- 52 miles of residential streets. These repairs include complete restoration, repaving, and sealing.
- 14 miles of unpaved streets. The City would help neighborhoods that form LIDs pave
dirt streets.
- 7 miles of streets impacted by utility work. This would allow for better repairs of streets that are subject to underground utility work.
