At the top of the list is Connecticut with a shameful 57 percent of its roads classified as being in poor condition. Pothole-ridden roads aren’t merely an annoyance, either. The ASCE estimates that motorists in Connecticut will incur annual costs of $864 as a direct result of driving on the state’s roads. While some states (Alabama – 2%) barely have any roads in shoddy condition, overall as a country, the USA was given a ‘must do better’ D grade on the latest scorecard.
This chart shows the U.S. states with the highest share of roads in poor condition.
