See How Cupertino's Roads Stacked Up To The Rest Of The Bay Area

CUPERTINO, CA — Cupertino's roads were ranked relitively high in a recently released report that analyzes the quality of Bay Area roads.

The Metropolitan Transportation Commission, which oversees transportation planning and more for the nine-county Bay Area, releases a report on pavement conditions of regional roads each year. Last month it released its latest report, which assigns communities a score on a scale of one to 100, based on a three-year average of data collected from 2017 to 2019. From there, communities are placed in categories ranging from "excellent" to "poor."

While no cities ranked "excellent," Dublin again topped the "very good" category with a score of 85. Palo Alto and Cupertino followed with scores of 84.

Who's got the worst roads in the Bay Area? Petaluma once again came in dead last with a score of 45. Pacifica trailed with a score of 46, and Napa and Sonoma followed with scores of 47 and 49, respectively.

Overall, San Francisco roads topped the list with a score of 74 and Sonoma County came in last with a score of 54. Santa Clara County roads ranked 4th place with an average score of 70.

“The good news is that the SB 1 gas tax money that cities and counties began receiving a couple years ago has helped prevent sliding backward," said MTC Chair Scott Haggerty in a news release. "But the bad news is that forward progress is slow and there’s still a long, steep climb to get where we want to be.”
