How does your state stack up? Get the facts

August 27, 2009

When it comes to transportation infrastructure, no state is being left untouched by budget cuts and neglect. Everywhere, roads and bridges are crumbling and demand for housing close to public transportation or in convenient walkable neighborhoods is skyrocketing — but not every state is reacting to these challenges in the same way. So we’ve put together a comprehensive state-by-state analysis of how America is doing on transportation in a nifty interactive map. So go ahead, give it a whirl — and find out how your state stacks up, and send it to your friends and family. Visit the map at http://t4america.org/statefacts

This is the first iteration of these state fact sheets, and they’ll be expanded upon in the coming months. So check back often for changes and new facts.
