ed/12/24 @ 8:45 a.m. - In September 2020, the County secured RoadBotics, an enterprise firm specializing in road and infrastructure assessments, to conduct an unbiassed survey of all the County's existing 437 miles of paved roads and to provide feedback on current conditions. The information gathered was used to develop a robust, Pavement Management Plan that guides the County in preventative maintenance.

The Board adopted the new Pavement Management Plan on August 22, 2021, utilizing a 22-year cycle for ranking, prioritizing, and budgeting purposes. Prior to adoption of the Pavement Management Plan, roadways could only be resurfaced every 86 years.  However since adoption of the Pavement Management Plan in 2021, 176 roads have been resurfaced. 

Upon adoption of the Pavement Management Plan, County Manager Taco Pope stated, "This Plan not only improves quality of life by having the roads resurfaced more frequently, the County benefits from a fiscal sustainability standpoint as well. One of the biggest problems jurisdictions face is the inability to maintain their infrastructure. You all (the Board) should be very proud that you have a proactive approach to pavement management. Nassau County is moving in a very positive direction”. 

Below is a short video that explains the process for ranking roads and getting dirt roads prepped and ready for paving. It also includes a testimonial from a resident on Coopers Neck Road explaining how newly chip sealed roads in his neighborhood have positively benefitted the community. Thank you for watching to see all the hard work by men and women of the Road Department and celebrating the progress of the Board of County Commissioner's Pavement Management Plan.
