The "Target" is to have less than 35% of our streets rated below a PCR of 80 ; "Close to Target" is within 45%; anything greater is “Needs Improvement”.

In 2016, residents of Goldsboro passed a $7 million Infrastructure Bond to go towards street resurfacing and dirt street paving. Near the beginning of this process in 2017, the percentage of streets that did not fall in the 80-100 rating was 60%. After two rounds of projects, the percentage in 2019 moved closer to the target with a 50% of the streets falling outside of the 80-100 rating. The COVID-19 pandemic prevented resurfacing during the 2020 fiscal year. After falling behind a year, the final street bond money was used for resurfacing in the 2021 fiscal year. At the completion of this most recent project, the city has 56% of our streets below the PCR 80 rating. Since pavement conditions continuously degrade, appropriate annual funding is a vital part of the success of this departmental metric.
