Answer 2

Answer:

The best option that fills the blank appropriately is "disrepair"

Explanation:

• The idea that something has been neglected to the point where it is in a poor state is conveyed by the word "disrepair."
• It gives the impression that something was not repaired correctly, which resulted in it being in a state of disrepair.
• It is possible that the word "Disrepair" was chosen to describe the situation because the road can cause damage to the tires of passing vehicles.
• The words deterioration, collapse, decrepitude, dilapidation, and ruination are all synonyms for this one.
• The appropriate word to use in this case must be determined using the context of the sentence which suggests that the road being talked about is in a less than ideal state.
