Oregon’s highway assets Condition of Oregon’s 34,000 culverts statewide ODOT spends $12.5 million per year on culverts today $95 Million a year to maintain conditions to today’s level The hidden problem of culverts 13
More reactive maintenance More load postings of bridges Roads posted as rough-roads with speed reductions As money is diverted to maintenance, less money is available for projects The system will deteriorate faster, and require more funds in the future Shifting maintenance priorities 14

Questions for OTC Consideration What is our tolerance for risk with regard to federal funding? How should available funding be allocated between Fix-It and Enhance ? If funding for Enhance is less than the STIP, should the selection process be modified to account for the small amount of funding? 20
