Performance Standards Maintenance Level 4 and 5 Roads

A road surface is maintained to standard when the travel way is free of washboards, potholes, or other irregularities. The surface is smooth, compact, crowned or sloped to drain, without segregation of the surfacing materials, and is impervious to surface water. Suitable materials have been recovered and incorporated. Unsuitable materials have been removed. Ditches and road surface drainage structures function efficiently. Unpaved shoulders are shaped to provide a smooth transition from the paved surface and drain efficiently.

Maintenance Level 3 Roads A road surface is maintained to standard when the surface is compact, crowned, or sloped to drain, without segregation of the surfacing materials, and is impervious to surface water. The road surface has no ruts or rills, suitable materials have been recovered and incorporated. Unsuitable materials have been removed. Ditches and road surface drainage structures function efficiently.

Maintenance Level 2 Roads

811.04

A road surface is maintained to standard when the surface is shaped and compacted to drain, where ditches and road surface drainage structures function efficiently, and surface is impervious to .surface water. The road surface has no continuous ruts or rills, and no large concentrations of unsuitable materials remain.

Location of Work As specified on roads listed on the ROAD LISTING, SHOWN ON THE PLANS, or as ordered by the Contracting Officer.
