Experts have told us that without additional funding, the percentage of trunk line and local roads in poor condition will nearly double within the next 10 years and would likely include two thirds of the state's entire roadway system by 2028. They also told us that we needed $1.2 billion in 2015, and because we did not solve the problem then, we now need 2.2 billion. Every year we fail to pay the bill, the interest just keeps adding up. It's like we took a loan from a bad loan shark. (02:30–02:42)
