    Stuff like this is really common in the States, too. In my state, counties take care of their own roads (outside of interstate highways), and it can be really obvious where the county line is, especially if you’re traveling between counties with vastly different socio-economic demographics.

      Especially in places where cities/counties have adjacent jurisdictions. It’s one of the subtle-until-pointed-out signs of the pervasive US urban decay caused by building out more (especially road) infrastructure than an authority can afford to maintain.
