In my town, it's like pulling teeth just to get them to fill in a pothole.

Every trip to CA reminds me of how well Colorado does on maintaining roads. Potholes created from a huge rain storm on minor streets are usually fixed in days, and the major ones get fixed in a day or two at most.

Highway expansion is another area completly though. I think the 3 lane expansion for the Springs will probably take 10-15 years to complete, for 9-10 miles of highway.
