Footnotes

1/ Includes the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Due to conversion from English to metric units and to rounding, individual cell values may not agree with corresponding mileage table cell values. 2004 data used for New York. Indiana excludes 770 miles of Federal agency roads.

2/ Some differences from other tables may be noted because these are estimated from sample data and to not include samples entirely on structures.

3/ Differences may exist from prior years due to the redefinition of divided and undivided roadways in 1999.
