Public Works outlines pavement program, PASER ratings and resurfacing options
Summary
Department of Public Works presented its pavement program memo to the Improvement & Services Committee, explaining reconstruct, resurfacing and mill-and-pave choices, expected service lives and coordination with the Green Bay Water Utility.
At its Oct. 15 meeting the Green Bay Department of Public Works briefed the Improvement & Services Committee on how it evaluates streets and selects work for the pavement program ahead of the 2026 capital-improvement budget.
The department described three principal treatments: reconstruction for streets with PASER ratings generally 4 or lower and with utility or drainage work needed; resurfacing for streets also typically rated 4 or lower but not requiring utility reconstruction; and mill-and-pave for streets in moderate condition. Public Works said expected service lives are roughly 10'15 years after mill-and-pave, about 20 years after resurfacing, and about 25 years for asphalt or 35 years for concrete after reconstruction.
Public Works staff said the city conducts PASER ratings every two years across the entire system and that this year the department began using a computer-vision/A.I. tool to assist PASER evaluations; staff said the new process is still being calibrated. The department also emphasized ongoing coordination with the Green Bay Water Utility to align water-main work with street projects.
Committee members asked for materials to share at neighborhood listening sessions and requested lists of streets proposed for work; staff said they will distribute those lists. The committee voted to receive and place the pavement-program memo on file.
End: The department will use the PASER results and utility coordination to build the five-year program proposed in the 2026 CIP process.
