Scott Walker's ex-DOT secretary says governor isn't telling the truth about roads

MADISON - Gov. Scott Walker's former transportation secretary says the GOP governor isn't telling the truth about road projects and is taking a high-risk gamble that could see the state invest billions of dollars in obsolete highways.
Walker has been "increasingly inaccurate" when describing the state's highway system, said Mark Gottlieb, a Republican who was in the Assembly for eight years and served as Walker's transportation secretary from 2011 to 2017.
Gottlieb is the third former top aide to Walker to speak out against the governor in recent months as he faces a re-election challenge from Democrat Tony Evers, the state schools superintendent.
