This affects who pays for pothole repairs, snow clearing, and road upgrades. For drivers, it may mean changes in road quality or who to contact about road issues."},"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"The instrument narrowly and explicitly removes the two listed roads from the subsidiary-roads category.
