CALIFORNIA BUSINESS MINUTE Ranking CA Roads 03-17-08
Hi, I am Tim Johnson and welcome to the California Business Minute.
The Road Information Program (TRIP), a Washington, D.C.-based lobbying group, found that California despite some progress still rules the bumpy roads.
Los Angeles, San Francisco-Oakland, San Jose, San Diego and Sacramento made the top 10. Riverside-San Bernardino, Oxnard-Ventura, and Fresno made the top 20 list of large urban regions (500,000+ populations) with the worst roads.
Road conditions are rated by the group as poor, mediocre, fair and good.
Data is based on the Federal Highway Administration's 2006 annual survey of state transportation officials on the condition of major state and locally maintained roads, based on a uniform pavement rating index. The pavement rating index measures the level of smoothness of pavement surfaces, supplying information on the ride quality provided by road and highway surfaces
