Seattle roads 12th worst in the country

SEATTLE – It’s no secret Seattle roads are a mess, and they are among the worst in the nation.

A new report shows the roads in and around the city are the 12th worst among large cities in the country. The TRIP Research Group report suggests the roads cost Seattle drivers an average of $625 in additional car maintenance every year. The report says nearly half our roads are in bad condition.

Spokane came in sixth in the mid-sized city list.
