Long Beach To Consider Speeding Up Road Repair By Issuing Bonds



The Long Beach City Council will consider issuing bonds of about $150 million to expedite road repairs over the next five years and to have revenue from the Measure A sales tax repay the debt in the future. A city memo said that the average permanent condition index score of Long Beach roads is 58 out of 100, with 53% of city streets rated below a 60 and 26% rated at 40 or below. The city’s score has declined by four points since 2017, and officials say that investing now will save money by addressing issues before further damage is done.
