Killeenâs roads are a mess.
That should be obvious to anyone who drives on them regularly. And the situation has only gotten worse since the severe winter weather that pummeled the area in February left many streets with potholes, broken pavement and in some cases, entire sections of missing asphalt.
The damage has been so severe that Killeen City Manager Kent Cagle told City Council members in early March that about $40 million would required to repair the damage. Thatâs on top of the $120 million needed for repairs to Killeenâs 539 miles of streets and roads, based on a yearlong city-funded study by Transmap, an Ohio-based firm.
