Longmont to Conduct Street Paving Assessments in August
This month, the City of Longmont will initiate a survey of the pavement condition of the 350 miles of asphalt and concrete streets in the City. As part of this work, the City has partnered with IMS Infrastructure Management Services (IMS) to conduct pavement assessments using the IrisPRO Pave system. Read the pavement survey news release.
The IrisPRO Pave system uses specialized technology to collect information about the condition of streets throughout Longmont. The system identifies pavement concerns including cracks, potholes and other surface issues that may need attention.
Information collected will help City staff better understand the overall condition of Longmont’s roadways and support planning for Longmont’s Pavement Management Program. Current pavement data ensures the City prioritizes projects, makes informed decisions and uses public funds responsibly.
