I & R Division Projects

Active road resurfacing contracts will improve 34.86 centerline miles of paved roads through the end of December 2020 (Bay Road - 2.1 miles, Group 7 / Reclamation - 4.2 miles, and Group 8 - 34.9 miles). The total miles resurfaced will be updated periodically as projects are completed.

Miles Paved = completed mileage of roads paved during current FY. (4.22 miles completed-paved during FY 17 / 8 miles total programmed for FY 17). Total miles = the sum of completed mileage (this FY) + mileage of projects "under construction" or "ready for construction" + remaining mileage of prior planned / programmed projects. 5.95 miles currently under construction include the following roads -- Simpson Creek Dr Pt 1 and Pt 2, Durham Lane, Murrells Landing Road, Steep Landing Road, Ruby Lane, Cartrette Rd, Dupont Road, Bill Grissett Rd, and Sioux Swamp Rd Part 2. Strawberry Road CTC. 5.65 miles are ready for construction or are in the engineering design process. 11.69 miles of roads have been approved for paving and are in the R/W acquisition process.
