How road conditions in Georgia have deteriorated since 2000

Road conditions in Georgia have seen a significant decline since 2000. Data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics reveals that the share of roads in "acceptable condition" in Georgia has dropped from 99.86% in 2000 to just under 93% in 2020. This decrease has financial implications for Georgia motorists, who spend an average of $410 per year on vehicle maintenance costs and increased fuel consumption due to poorly maintained roads. The condition of roads is measured by the International Roughness Index (IRI), with roads having IRI values below 170 considered in acceptable condition and those above 170 classified as poor. These figures are part of a larger trend across the U.S, where the state of road infrastructure has deteriorated, leading to an estimated $130 billion in extra vehicle repairs and fuel costs annually.
