Each year the City of Leavenworth budgets funding for major street repairs, called the Pavement Management Program. This is in addition to the regular crack seal repair, pothole repair and patching done by streets division staff throughout the year.

Little Joe’s Asphalt was awarded the bid for the 2024 Pavement Management Program during the March 12, 2024 City Commission meeting. The street repairs scheduled for 2024 will cost approximately $1.8 million. The work will consist of mill and overlay, which means that the top 2 inches of driving surface will be milled away and replaced with asphalt overlay. Streets were recommended after staff evaluated both their Pavement Condition Index (PCI) and actual field conditions. Work is scheduled to begin in May. The work will include some short-term road closures. Stay tuned to the City of Leavenworth website, social media sites and other information available regarding road closures.
