REASON:                       The Virginia Department of Transportation requests that the City of Richmond to

enter into an agreement for the development and administration of the Primary Extension Paving Program Projects approved under FY 2024 State of Good Repair Program (SGR).

 

RECOMMENDATION:  The department of Public Works recommends approval.

 

BACKGROUND:  House Bill 1887 requires funding to be allocated for Primary Extension Paving Program under State of Good Repair for U.S. Routes and Virginia State Routes. The program must include the condition of the existing transportation assets; the methodology used to determine maintenance and state of good repair needs; performance targets and outcomes; listings of prioritized pavement projects based on priority ranking system.

 

The bill requires the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) to develop a priority ranking system for deteriorated pavement on Primary Arterial Roads. The Primary Extension Paving Program is a Federal Funded Statewide Program, and the City of Richmond submitted the application for Richmond Hwy (Jefferson Davis Hwy North); UPC 123916 from Yorktown Ave to Chesterman Ave (estimated cost $457,394.00); Richmond Hwy (Jefferson Davis North) UPC 123917 from Bells Rd to Yorktown Ave (estimated cost $544,904.00) and Richmond Hwy (Jefferson Davis South) UPC 123918 from Atwell Dr.to Alexander Ave (estimated cost $421,666.00). The scope of this project consists of milling, resurfacing and ADA upgrades for and estimated cost of $1,423,964.00

 

These projects were submitted in December 2022 and received approval for funding from Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) in June 2023 in the total amount of $1,423,964.00. Breakdown of the $1,423,964.00 equates to VDOT administrative cost $90,200.00 and reimbursable federal funds to the City for construction $1,333,764.00
