Write Up:

This measure tracks how much of the planned maintenance operation work in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, along with additional activities, is 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 and reports updates on year-to-date status compared to the 5-year completion average.

Planned activities for asphalt pavement repair, seal coating, bridge deck seals and concrete pavement repair are 23% ahead of their 5-year completion average. Striping and mowing are within 3% of the 5-year average. Pipe repair is the only activity running below the 5-year average. All this work has been completed with nearly 225,000 additional labor hours compared to the 3-year average for emergency activities (winter, flooding and tornado). Visual activities exceeded the 3-year average by nearly 25,000 hours. These numbers highlight the benefit of maintaining positive staffing levels, with current staffing showing less than 9% vacancies.

The example visual above from MMS demonstrates work plan progress for asphalt pavement repair and pipe culvert repair for year-to-date calendar year 2025.

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.
