When presenting his budget proposal last August, Muncie Mayor Dan Ridenour said the paving timeline in the city would come from a 6-year plan using an independent study from 2017, listing each street’s condition on a 10-point scale.
“And it ranks them from 10, which is the best, to zero, which is ‘This is ridiculous – needs to be replaced immediately.’ And we’re starting with the worst streets. And then the next year, we’re doing the next worst streets and the next worst streets.”
Two streets you don’t see on this year’s list are Tillotson Avenue and McGalliard Road. The city previously announced parts of those streets will be repaired as part of a Federal Highway Administration funds matching program. But officials say the work is not scheduled to begin until fiscal year 2026.
