Montana Pavement Quality Index

Pavement Quality for Montana, latest reading.
What this means
Most state DOTs use three pavement condition categories — Good (no maintenance needed soon), Fair (preservation candidate), and Poor (needs rebuilding). The share of Poor mileage is the single biggest driver of the fix-the-roads investment debate at the state level.
What you can do
- For commuters: check your state DOT's pavement layer before mapping a long route — Fair/Poor segments add real wear to your suspension.
- For local-government planners: PASER / IRI condition data drives the case for federal STBG funds.
