How PMS Information is Used <br />The primary purpose of maintaining a PMS is to collect and analyze information relating to street <br />system condition and trends. With this vital information Public Works managers ensure the most cost <br />effective maintenance or rehabilitation strategies are identified and performed at the optimum time. <br />Each year the PMS is used to generate several reports requested by other agencies as well as <br />statistical data requested within our own agency. The following is a sample of reports produced with <br />PMS data: <br />Pavement Preservation Project List <br />Crack Seal Program <br />Five-Year Surface List – five-year moratorium for street cutting <br />ODOT Oregon Mileage Report <br />City of Eugene Public Infrastructure Table <br />Annual Insurance Marketing Report <br />Transportation Service Profile <br />ICMA Survey <br />PAVEMENT PRESERVATION PROGRAM <br />Street preservation and rehabilitation, capital improvements, off-street shared-use path projects, and <br />maintenance efforts make up the complete Pavement Preservation Program (PPP). The City Council <br />has provided PW Maintenance additional funding for the purpose of repairing the street system <br />(Enhanced Pothole Program) which includes unimproved streets. Both PW Maintenance and PW <br />Engineering have important roles within the PPP. <br />PW Maintenance Roles <br />Maintenance Division staff from the Surface Technical team complete the pavement rating, budget <br />and street life analysis, resulting in a proposed list of projects which is then forwarded to Engineering <br />for field testing and final grouping. Operations staff is responsible for the preventative maintenance <br />of all City streets (including concrete streets) and off-street shared-use paths. Preventative <br />maintenance designed to extend the life of the transportation asset is of highest priority. Fully <br />improved asphalt streets receive the highest level of maintenance. Maintenance activities are <br />performed to mitigate hazardous conditions and to extend the useful life of the street. The goal of <br />preventative maintenance is to prevent a street’s OCI from slipping into a reconstruction category. <br />PW Engineering Roles <br />Engineering Division typically receives the grouped projects for preservation three years in advance <br />of construction. Construction design and historical data are collected and reviewed, and field <br />inspections are performed. Final determination of needed treatment results from core tests and <br />recommendations by pavement consultants. If a street is determined to be a full reconstruct it is <br />deferred until funding is identified and available. <br />Engineering Division is responsible for PPP project design, utility coordination, contract <br />administration, and project construction. <br /> 7 <br />
