"Michigan's roads are deteriorating at an increasingly rapid rate. Allowing this trend to continue will have significant financial and economic consequences. For example, the cost of returning a poor road to good condition is four to five times greater than the cost of maintaining a road in fair condition. Allowing more roads to reach poor condition will dramatically increase the costs of repairing Michigan's road network."
