EUGENE'S STREET INVENTORY <br />The City of Eugene has jurisdictional responsibility for many different types and, <br />classifications of roads within the transportation system. Many factors such as age, <br />development type, traffic loads, use, and future transportation needs affect the maintenance <br />and rehabilitation planning for the system. The segment inventory component of the PMS <br />system allows a reporting of both centerline miles (intersection to intersection) and lane miles <br />of each .segment of the system. While commonly used in reporting distance, centerline miles <br />do not relate equally across streets of different widths or different n er of lanes. For this <br />report, comparisons typically are shown both in centerline and 12 e lane miles unless <br />otherwise noted. <br />Improvement Status <br />For purposes of establishing budget allocations and r~iabilit~tion prioritie~~ a'tid performing <br />maintenance activities based on established maintcrtance pol' ies, Eugene div~id tl street <br />inventory into. two distinct categories: - ~ , <br />Improved streets are those which have been fully design structural adequacy, have storm <br />drainage facilities provided which incl orbs and gutters, • have either an asphalt <br />concrete (AC) or a portland cement-cone ~ ~e (1~CC) surface.
