I can’t imagine how the roads are getting worse. It seems like the ever-diligent PennDOT has 30% of them torn up for resurfacing at any one time.

I have a cousin who's a PennDot Engineer. About 15-20 years ago, PA switched to a new "environmentally friendly" asphalt mixture, which, by the way, degrades far more rapidly and has nowhere near the freeze-thaw resistance of the traditional mixture.

Why in the world would this be a surprise? Its completely predictable with Fast Eddie in charge.
Good grief these reporters sure do their very best to look stupid.

The roads in this state are an absolute disgrace. But I've never seen better tended private lawns and cemeteries anywhere.

Could they have the same problem that we have in Wisconsin - they take the gas tax money and use them for non-road use? Or are they taking the gas tax money and using it to subsidize mass transit, like choo-choo trains? Maybe if they actually used the gas-tax money on the roads, the roads would be in better shape.

What freaking amazes me is that the year after year it seems like many of the same stretches of road are continually being reworked., and yet I never see anything wrong. They just keep reworking the same stretches.
