Existing roadway is comprised of concrete panels approximately 16 feet wide. The panels have significant failures, showing deep cracks, differential settlement, and joint/edge spalling, etc. TIB data shows this roadway section has a PCR score of only 36. The roadway, being frequently patched with asphalt, exhibits a maintenance burden with safety concerns for the City. First Street is an important route for connection to the Citys downtown core area, SE of the A Street intersection. The existing drainage condition is poor with runoff flowing to either side of the existing concrete panels, causing pedestrian access difficulties. A new water main was installed along this roadway in 2019.
