Transportation and Road Reliability
Safe roads. Reliable routes. Time back in your day.
A dependable transportation system connects people to work, school, medical care, and home. It
also keeps goods moving and businesses operating.
When a road closes or a bridge needs repair, the effects reach well beyond the pavement.
Deliveries are delayed. Appointments are missed. Emergency access becomes more difficult.
Families lose hours they cannot get back.
Russ Andrews believes maintaining safe, accessible roads should be a core state priority. He will
advocate for Western Slope transportation needs and for a budget that gives infrastructure the
attention it deserves.
Put reliable transportation first:
Prioritize maintenance and repair.
Keeping existing roads and bridges safe must be central to
transportation spending. Russ will push for stronger investment in the routes people and
businesses depend on every day.
Bring local priorities to the Capitol.
State highways, county roads, bridges, and connecting
routes function as one network. Russ will work with local officials to identify critical needs and
advocate for them in state funding decisions.
Match spending to results. Transportation investments should come with clear costs, schedules,
and purposes. Residents deserve to understand what a project will improve and whether it
delivered.
Make room in the budget for infrastructure.
Russ has called for substantially increasing
transportation funding by reassessing other state spending. He believes safe roads deserve
sustained attention in the budget.
Success means safer travel, dependable access, and fewer disruptions to daily life.
