Pavement Condition (in Lane Miles)
Note: Poor pavements are generally in need of rehabilitation or full reconstruction to return to good condition. Fair pavements are in need of capital preventive maintenance to avoid deteriorating to the poor classification. Good pavements generally receive only routine maintenance, such as street sweeping and snow removal, until they deteriorate to the fair condition.

Note: SEMCOG's 2008 Land Use data set represents land use
only and not land cover. Due to this difference, change
analysis using this data set and previous SEMCOG land
use/land cover data sets in not possible. Noticeable
differences in map appearance and classification acreage
totals are the result of this land use data originating from
digital parcel files assigned land use codes based on their
assessed property class and the lack of any land cover data.
