Stucturally Deficient

Comment comment by markmcb on 04 August 2007

It's interesting that there are more than 70,000 structurally deficient bridges in the US (roughly 13%). Anyone seen any cost estimates for repairing bridges like this? I can only assume that these numbers will climb (both costs and deficiencies) as the infrastructure built during the rapid growth of the 1940's and 50's ages.
