What is up with the state and local governments with regard to fixing side roads in the state? It seems to me that usually it’s only the roads that don’t need fixing that get worked on. I am fed up with taxes going up, yet the side roads are not fixed.

The state has millions of dollars in rainy day and general funds that could be used.

When the state lottery was first started, some of the money was supposed to go for roads, and some to help fund schools. So where has that money gone?

It is pretty bad when a driver has to move to the other side of the road to avoid potholes.

The governor and other elected officials should get busy and find funds to fix the roads that need fixing, and stop wasting the public’s tax money.
