811.02

Performance Standards

A. 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. 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.

B. 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. 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.

C. Maintenance Level 2 Roads
