MTC’s pavement grant funding is tied to the use of the StreetSaver software program because the program is objective and mathematical, using a scientifically developed algorithm that inputs the available pavement maintenance budget, existing pavement conditions and street classification (residential, collector, arterial) to develop the program. Once the program selects a list of streets, the City’s pavement consultant provides an engineering review on each street to verify the appropriate treatment is used. With limited funding, the program is only able to select a limited number of streets. As more funding becomes available, the program would select a higher number of streets for treatment.
