Customer maintenance requests typically trigger DPW work orders for service (see #3 above and ‘I think my road needs repair’ below). Customer pothole and road maintenance report records are then factored so that those locations receiving the most requests for service are weighted accordingly.Department of Public Works (DPW) maintenance record data layered over the long range planning report OCI ratings so that those roads which require the most in-house maintenance resources are weighted accordingly. This rating is calculated by a computer program based on various inputs established through a physical inspection of each roadway. Along range planning report prepared for the Township in the mid-2000s is reviewed to reference the Overall Condition Index (OCI) rating of each roadway.Bid priorities for the annual road program are as follows: Through a detailed analysis of the roadways, a road program is designed in order to improve and maximize the life of as many roads as possible within the budget allocated. Throughout the year, the Department of Public Works and Engineering collect data used to develop a list of roadways to be considered for inclusion in the capital program. How does Marlboro determine which roads to repave?Ī. For the 2018 capitol program, Mayor Hornik has asked Council to approve a $5 million dollar budget for road construction 87.5% more than 2017. We also actively apply for state and county grants (more below). Our annual budget is approximately $37 million dollars. Marlboro allocates between $1.5 and $3.0 million of our annual budget towards road improvements each year. The bulk of the projects in the plan are targeted for improvements to infrastructure the most significant of which is road improvements. Marlboro maintains a 6-year capital program and updates it annually. How much does Marlboro spend on road improvements each year?Ī. The roads within the Township and their designation are detailed on a map HERE. Our other local roads are noted as ‘low volume secondary’ roads which typically receive less traffic and primarily serve local traffic. Township (local) roadways include ‘primary’ or ‘collector’ roads defined as streets that collect traffic from local roads and feed major highways. We also have approximately 100 miles that are maintained by Monmouth County and the State of New Jersey such as Route 520, Route 79, Tennent Road, Route 9 and Route 18. The Township of Marlboro consists of 32.5 square miles and over 200 miles of local roadways.
