If you're curious about how to create service levels, please take a moment to review this document. Avoid replicating your next-door municipality's service levels. Manage your own backyard.

1. What is it that will showcase the municipality's performance?

2. What in the road network will demonstrate performance improvements?

3. What standards are you trying to achieve?

4. What problems are you trying to eliminate?

5. What are the current trends?

Start with these questions and expand from there. Read this document for more details. Above all be committed and stand by your goals. That's what your community wants.
