Consultants tell Elyria council streets average a 'fair' PCI of 68; dashboard aims to guide repairs
Summary
Pavement Management Group presented a citywide street-scanning study showing Elyria's average Pavement Condition Index is 68 (’fair’). The report includes a Road Insights dashboard, video of scans and ward-level KPIs to help prioritize crack sealing, base repairs and paving budgets.
Pavement Management Group presented the results of Elyria’s first citywide street-scanning study to the Community Development Committee on Jan. 12, saying the city’s average Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is 68 on a 0–100 scale, a level the consultant described as “fair.”
James Golden, PMG’s CEO and founder, told council the firm completed high-definition video scans and an inventory of 2,087 pavement sections and used ASTM-standard distress extraction to build a GIS-linked dashboard called Road Insights. “The backbone of PMG’s pavement management program…is our expertise within this discipline as well as some software backed by the pavement management system,” Golden said during the presentation.
