The Reason Foundation recently released its 20th Annual Report on the Performance of State Highway Systems, a report that is designed to track the performance of state-owned highway systems of the United States.
Eleven indicators make up each state’s overall rating, including highway expenditures, interstate and primary road pavement condition, bridge condition, urban interstate congestion, fatality rates and narrow rural lanes. The study is based on spending and performance data submitted by the state highway agencies to the federal government.
The rankings of the six New England states were: #18 – New Hampshire, #28 – Vermont, #29 – Maine, #43 – Massachusetts, #44 – Connecticut, and #49 – Rhode Island.
Media report:
Burlington Free Press: Vermont jumps from 42nd to 28th place in national road ranking (4 JUL 13)
