The
new Road Maintenance Fee is enabling Spartanburg County to
begin a new road maintenance and road improvement program.
The program has two major elements.
Annual
Resurfacing Program: The County will begin spending
approximately $3 million each year on repaving roads, repairing
drainage systems, cleaning ditches and maintaining rights-of-way.
Capital
Improvement Program: The County is initiating
a $19.5 million Capital Improvement Program that includes
safety improvements, road widening, intersection improvements
and bridge replacements. These are major, non-recurring projects.
The
result is better, safer roads, less damage to vehicle, and
well maintained infrastructure. |
