(1) This table summarizes the change in status of the highway obligations of local governments including toll authorities. See Table LGF-21 for general note on local highway finance series. Local government reporting is on a biennial basis with even-numbered years optional. This table is compiled from the reports of State and local governments.
(2) Any difference between amount outstanding at beginning of the year and the amount outstanding at the end of the previous year may have resulted from accounting adjustments, changes in reporting year, rounding, etc.
(3) Although most local roads and streets are under State control, local governments may raise and expend money on local roads and streets. State expenditures on these roads and streets are included in State Highway Finance Table series.
