A budget of $1,000,000 per year is allocated for the Road Construction Program. This includes contracted services, engineering, gravel, culverts, soil sampling, power line relocates, crop damage, land acquisitions, fencing, erosion control, environmental requirements and rock picking. Evaluation criteria, such as safety concerns, historical maintenance, average annual daily traffic, sight lines, grade width, sideslopes/backslopes, drainage and type of traffic, are used to determine which roads will be constructed and prioritized for reconstruction.
Road construction will be conducted once every three years instead of on an annual basis.
