Pavement Management

The City of Coachella has upgrading their strategy for assessing street repair needs throughout the City and have recently adopted AtlasView, software that can predict, with a high degree of precision, the wear and degradation of each individual street throughout the City. Data collected through AtlasView enables Coachella to develop short and long-term plans for street repair encompassing nearly 150 miles of terrain. Ratings generated from the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) are published on a public facing webpage that provides residents with both current and forecasted information regarding street repair throughout the City.
