    Investment in well-maintained roads and bridges

    What we collect

    This indicator tracks the amount of annual government investments in County roads and bridges.

    Why we collect it

    Effective transportation networks allow individuals to easily pursue day-to-day needs and businesses to better reach customers. However, the effectiveness of these networks is heavily dependent upon funding. Monitoring this indicator will allow us to gauge how effectively governments are financing the County's road and bridge network.
