Tennessee has the third best road conditions in the country

Tennessee has the third best road conditions in the country, according to a new data recently released by the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics. The data identifies states with the highest and lowest percentage of roads deemed “acceptable” on federal infrastructure report cards. Tennessee came in third with 94.7% of its roads – a little more than 4,800 miles of the state’s 5,070 miles of roadway – deemed in at least acceptable condition. Only Idaho and Wyoming scored better. Roadways on the report are graded based on the conditions of roads and bridges, road quality, funding, commuting patterns, and other factors.
