Project Overview
The City of Burien is responsible for repairs and maintenance of approximately 137 center line miles of paved roads (residential 78%, collector 13%, arterial 9%).
The annual Pavement Management Program (PMP) consists of pavement preservation applications (crack sealing, micro-surfacing and slurry seal coatings), maintenance items (pothole repairs), together with necessary full reconstruction and rehabilitation pavement overlay projects. The purpose of the program is to reduce the overall long-term cost for maintaining the condition of Burien streets.
Each year projects are selected by reviewing the current Pavement Condition Index (PCI), field inspections, and resident input.
2026 Pavement Overlay Project
The city will be conducing necessary pavement repairs along 4th Ave SW from 136th Ave SW to 146th Ave SW. The project will consist of full depth road repairs, grind and overlay of new asphalt pavement, and ADA compliant crosswalk improvements.
