The road report is newly updated and while it doesn't specifically say when it will get repaired, it does provide the status and next step as to what the repair would be.
The repair schedule if it requires a full rebuild is coordinated with water and sewer line work and generally announced in advance as it is a 2 year process. First year is the sewer/water line work, then the second year is the rebuild and repave.
Given we would need to have approximately $2M per year to cover the $40M total over say a 20 year period, and we have less than $1M in the "road repair" budget, and that we also failed to pass a dedicated debt exclusion in 20214 to specifically provide $1.5M for roads every year, "when" is a question that can't be answered at this time.
Stay tuned into the regular budget cycle to find out what the priorities are and when the Town Council will vote on such priorities.
