- Sign panels attached to the sign support are managed as a separate asset
State of Good
Repair (SOGR)
Condition ratings are determined via inspection of sign supports on a predetermined cycle. Sign supports with an overall rating of at least a 5 on a 0-9 condition scale are classified as being in a State of Good Repair.
Support Age
- Overhead sign supports are assigned a 34-year service life based on a 17-year sign replacement cycle
- 26.0% (431) of sign supports are older than 34 years
- 229 sign supports with unknown age were assigned to 1980s based on available imagery from DigitalHIWAY or Google Earth

Performance Projections
Sign support projections use deterioration curves for the overall structure condition rating. These curves are based on the assigned 34- year service life of sign supports.
Asset Valuation
$293,820,000
Asset value is estimated using the replacement value. For sign supports, replacement value is based on the average unit construction cost by type:
Cantilever
$150,000 * 685 = $102,750,000
Full Span
$285,000 * 615 = $175,275,000
Bridge Mount
$45,000 * 351 = $15,795,000
Note: This value does not include the cost of the sign panels.
Measures & Targets
There are no Federal requirements at this time. CTDOT has set the following sign support condition goal:
- 90% or more of sign supports in a SOGR

Sign Support Performance Projections
In this chart:
NOTE: "Current Funding" shown in the graphs is limited to funding programed to address State of Good Repair. Projected performance is expected to be greater due to asset improvements funded through CTDOT's Capital Program which are not captured. The Department will soon be able to capture this funding through a project asset data system in development.
