RE: 2025 Pavement Marking Project
Public Hearing
Project Code: 5521000013
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum requests the City Council conduct a public hearing for the 2025
Pavement Marking Project.
BACKGROUND
The pavement marking program is vital to our transportation system as it provides safety
to drivers and pedestrians on the public road system. Well-defined crosswalk stripping for
example provides areas where pedestrians can traverse a roadway safely.
The City contracts for a city-wide pavement marking project to furnish, install, maintain,
and remove permanent pavement markings to include Lines and Symbols and Legends
on City streets as directed by the Engineering Department.
DISCUSSION
The Pavement Marking Project is completed annually due to a more rapid deterioration
on higher volume, high vehicular movement roadways. Pavement markings are applied
using waterborne paint with a service life of approximately two (2) years.
As part of a cooperative Maintenance Agreement with the lowa Department of
Transportation (lowa DOT), the City will include portions of lowa DOT jurisdictional
pavement markings with the City's annual pavement marking program. The Maintenance
Agreement includes all Symbols and Legends and a portion of center Lines on lowa DOT
routes within the City. The lowa DOT will reimburse the City for their share of project costs
after the project is completed and accepted.
