Thank you all for responding. I look for more input from all corners of the US. The more generic by state is the most helpful.

With this unofficial survey, my group will be doing a historical study over the last 10 years for each state on;

1) How many $'s are spent per lane mile for new lanes vs population.
2) How many $'s are spent on Maintenace per lane mile vs population.
3) How many $ are collected by each state for the purpose of Maintenace or new construction per state, IE, Federal $'s, state taxes, fuel taxes, special bonds etc.

So, each state will get a ranking after the study is done, and the results shared with lobbyist, union leaders, and politicians. This study will be done by a university yet to be named. We sponsored this study in the mid 90's and most states keep a lot of this information hard to find. College kids dig and find comparable numbers.

What we found before, in the last study, was dollars were diverted from Highways and infrastructure to "Emergency projects" which generally turned out to be pet projects. Bringing this study to light, allow some progress in the right direction.

Thanks for playing along lol
