DESCRIPTION:
Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is a 0-100 ranking system that is based on the physical
and structural condition of a street. PCI scores of 90 or higher are considered
“excellent.” These are newly built or resurfaced streets that show little or no distress.
Pavement with a PCI score in the 80 to 89 range is considered “very good,” and shows
only slight or moderate distress, requiring primarily preventive maintenance. The “good”
category ranges from 70 to 79, while streets with PCI scores in the “fair” (60 -69) range
are considered worn to the point where rehabilitation may be need ed to prevent rapid
deterioration.
The City of Dublin achieved the highest average PCI score of 85 (Very Good) in 2016,
which is the highest in the Bay Area for the analysis period from 2014 to 2016. First of
the two awards from the MTC is for the City of Dublin's efforts in achieving this highest
PCI score.
Street Pavement Management is a set of tools and policies designed to manage the
maintenance activities of street pavements. A Pavement Management Program (PMP)

consists of an accounting to keep track of existing and historical pavement condition
data and a decision-making process to help choose the most cost-effective
maintenance strategies for streets.
The City of Dublin, like all other jurisdictions in the Bay Area, uses Metropolitan
Transportation Commission’s (MTC) computerized Pavement Management Program
called StreetSaver. Staff regularly maintains and updates StreetSaver, which helps the
City in efficiently planning the maintenance work for various categories of streets in the
City. MTC is presenting the second award to the City of Dublin in recognition of
maintaining and operating the PMP.
It is important to note that MTC is presenting both awards to one jurisdiction for the first
time in their history presenting awards.
