Write Up:

This measure tracks how much of the planned maintenance operation work in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, and additional activities, are accomplished each year. The measure includes location-specific work, such as bridge deck seals, and comprehensive statewide work, such as striping. Location-specific work is tracked in the MoDOT Management System (MMS) and reports updates in year-to-date status compared to 3-year completion average. Three-year average is currently being utilized until 5-years of data is available within MMS.

The MMS continues to improve the accuracy of planning and documenting accomplishments at MoDOT. Asphalt Pavement Repair, Seal Coating, Pipe Replacement and Bridge Deck Seals planned activities’ accomplishments are 10-20% ahead of their 3-year completed average. Striping and mowing are about 3% more than the average. A mild calendar year has allowed measurable work to be accomplished. These numbers also highlight the benefit of staffing numbers remaining positive.

The example visual above from MMS demonstrates work plan progress for asphalt pavement repair and pipe culvert repair for year to date, calendar year 2024.

Purpose of the Measure:

MoDOT publishes the maintenance and operations work plans every year in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan for the first three years. This measure is completed to determine how each district performs compared to the planned levels in the STIP. 

Measurement and Data Collection:

Activities planned in the STIP and other activities such as striping and mowing are tracked in MMS. Planned amounts are also developed in MMS and are used for determining the percent of work plan progress. One exception is mowing - the total shoulder miles are estimated at 90% of the lane miles for this measure.
