Iowa drivers bear cost of crumbling roads say TRIP report
TRIP, a Washington DC based group, finds over a quarter of Iowa urban roads and 18 percent of rural roads in poor condition costing drivers about 2 billion dollars annually. Lawmakers consider a 10 cent gas tax to cover a 215 million annual shortfall while opponents question reports of road decay. Farmers and rural residents cite potholes and bridge concerns, arguing tax revenue would offset maintenance costs.
