Georgia Bond Fight Over Highway Costs Divides Counties
The Joint Committee for Highway Bonds argues Georgia counties must pay one fourth of state road costs while North Carolina offers a contrasting payback system. Georgia has 91,131 miles of county roads largely unimproved versus North Carolina’s 65,311 miles with far more paved and graded routes. Georgia counties have issued about 24.39 million dollars in road bonds to fund county share, while proponents insist bond financing is essential for building a substantial state highway system.
