Plan called county roads threat to state’s system
SACRAMENTO T M The County Supervisors Association warns California may have the finest highway system while rural roads turn to a morass of mud. A survey estimates it could take 20 years and 549 million dollars to fix county road deficiencies. The group questions bigger highway-user tax revenue cuts as Legislature weighs bills to raise taxes. Gov Warren says California faces building highways faster or risking more traffic deaths. He argues extra funds should fund mainline freeways linking metros and borders, serving about 83 percent of residents.
