One item in the city’s budget items will roll out across Alexandria streets throughout this year.

In a newsletter, Alexandria Mayor Justin Wilson said the proposed FY 2024 budget includes $5.25 million for road repaving around Alexandria, with $64.6 million for the next decade.

This year’s road repaving budget is a slight increase over last year, which included $5.1 million for road repaving.

Streets are prioritized based on their Pavement Condition Inventory (PCI) score and staff coordinating with utility work and other projects, Wilson wrote.

Wilson said, if the paving funding is approved in the budget, the following Alexandria roads will be repaved over the next year:
