San Bernardino plans to repave and repair city streets, after the City Council recently approved $8.78 million for the work.

Nearly 5.5 miles — 21 streets — in the city will be repaired. Work is expected to begin in May and finish in October, a city news release says.

The city’s Measure S funds will pay for $6 million and nearly $2 million will come from the state Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program, according to the release. Measure I, a county tax for transportation improvements, will fund $500,000, and state gas tax funds will contribute the remaining $400,000, the release says.
