Description
Fixing streets across the City of San Diego is a long, bumpy road, but on Tuesday City Councilmembers heard recommendations to improve our roads.
The City’s Transportation Department says it won’t be cheap.
“A total need of 1.9 billion dollars is needed over the next 10 years,” said Bethany Bezak, the department’s director. And that's not to make our streets perfect, that's just to get them back up to an overall rating of satisfactory.
“That's a really big price tag,” said Councilmember Stephen Whitburn, who is also chair of the committee that oversees transportation issues. “We're going to have to make some very fiscally responsible decisions here as we try to get the roads into as good a shape as we can.”
