Agency: Transportation

Line Item: Operations/Maintenance Management

Function

One of the most important functions of the Department of Transportation is maintenance of State highways. This is the second largest single outlay of the total highway dollar. During FY 2014, the Maintenance Division will be engaged in maintaining nearly 18,000 lane miles of hard surface roadway. Good maintenance is important to the safety and convenience of the public and protects the investment of the citizens of Utah in their highway network.

Statutory Authority

The Maintenance Management Division of the Utah Department of Transportation is governed by the Title 72-6 UCA.

Intent Language

    There is appropriated to the Department of Transportation from the Transportation Fund, not otherwise appropriated, a sum sufficient, but not more than the surplus of the Transportation Fund, to be used by the Department for the construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of State highways in Utah. It is the intent of the Legislature that the appropriation fund first, a maximum participation with the federal government for the construction of federally designated highways, as provided by law, and last the construction of State highways, as funding permits. It is also the intent of the Legislature that the FTEs for field crews may be adjusted to accommodate the increase or decrease in the Federal Construction Program. No portion of the money appropriated by this item shall be used either directly or indirectly to enhance or increase the appropriations otherwise made by this act to the Department of Transportation for other purposes.
    Under terms of Section 63J-1-603-(3)(a) Utah Code Annotated the Legislature intends that appropriations provided for Operations/Maintenance in item 3 of Chapter 12 Laws of Utah 2012 not lapse at the close of Fiscal Year 2013. The use of any non-lapsing funds is limited to the following: Equipment/Supplies - $1,300,000; Environmental Cleanup- $200,000; and Land Purchase - $500,000.
    The Legislature intends that any and all collections or cash income from the sale or salvage of land and buildings are to be lapsed to the Transportation Fund.

Program: Maintenance Administration

Function

The Department has set up the Engineer for Maintenance fund to cover extraordinary snow storms, natural disasters or other unexpected emergencies. The record snowfall of January 1993 and the 2011 land slide near Cedar City that took out part of the highway are examples of where these funds have been used. Near the end of the year these funds will be distributed to the regions for regular maintenance functions if emergency expenditures are not required.

Maintenance operations generally are performed by Department personnel and may range from keeping the highway free of litter to repairing extensive damage caused by storms or floods. Traffic services also include highway striping, signs, signals, lighting, roadside rest areas, right-of-way planting, routine maintenance and emergency assistance to traffic such as snow and ice removal. Maintenance of the highway system is primarily the financial responsibility of the State of Utah. Inflation, coupled with increased lane miles of highway surface, has caused expenditures for maintenance to rise.

Program: Region 2

Function

UDOT Region Two is divided in two districts (East and West) for road maintenance purposes. These two districts are further divided into four geographic areas, all contained within the Region's boundaries. Each one of these areas houses maintenance stations staffed with cross-trained employees to tackle a variety of responsibilities required to maintain the state's investment in transportation infrastructure. These employees perform maintenance activities ranging from sweeping and snowplowing to repairing state roadways in order to prolong their service life cycles. During fiscal year 2013, UDOT Region 2 invested $29,875,200 in maintenance activities of which $2,567,300 was invested on preserving pavements and $7,533,100 in snow removal ativities.

The Good Roads Cost Less approach is a top priority to Region Two's maintenance personnel, and several innovative approaches have been implemented to maximize resources, safety and efficiencies, including:

  • Installing of Gaz-X Avalanche Control Systems to increase safety and minimize risk when conducting blasting activities in the canyons.

  • Pavement Marking Performance Contract which will warrant roadway markings in certain areas of I-15 and I-215 for six years.

  • Pre-treating roadways with sodium chloride or magnesium chloride solutions shortly before forecasted snow storms to facilitate snow removal activities.
