How Your State’s Bridges Stack Up Against the Rest of the Country

According to the American Road and Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA), “one in three US bridges needs repair or replacement.” Furthermore, 6.8% of American bridges are listed in “poor condition.” The repairs needed are costly. ARTBA estimates it would require over $400 billion to fix everything that’s needed. (Also see which state has the worst highways.)

24/7 Wall St. reviewed data to determine which bridges across the country are the most vulnerable. Using the Libertarian Reason Foundation’s 27th Annual Highway Report, we listed states in order of the percentage of structurally deficient bridges, ranking from lowest to highest. The report provides overall highway performance scores ranging from 1 to 50, with 50 being the best. The rankings are generated using 13 category scores, including deficient bridges, traffic fatalities, traffic congestion, urban and rural pavement conditions, spending per mile, and administrative costs per mile of highway. And finally, we’ve included each state’s most impressive bridge, which came from Love Exploring.

Why This Matters

Many Americans cross bridges each day on their daily commute. Reliable bridges are critical for public safety and the nation’s economy. However, most bridges in America were built to last 50 to 70 years, and 42% of bridges are at least 50 years old. While bridges get inspected every two years, and those deemed deficient are eligible for federal funding for repairs, it’s the policymakers that allocate funds for infrastructure improvements. Unless we increase spending on bridge rehabilitation, it will take many years to get America’s bridges back in shape.
