US Facts - Data from the National Bridge Inventory shows just how good — or not — bridges are by state.
The US National Highway System has 146,000 bridges. As of 2022, 5% of these bridges were in poor condition, 52.0% were fair, and 43.1% were good. This is an improvement since 2000, when 9.8% of highway bridges were poor.
From 2000 to 2022, Georgia’s highway bridges improved the most of any state, from 57% of bridges in good condition to 76.9%. The percentage of bridges in good shape dropped in more than 30 states, including Oregon. That state’s percentage fell from 65% to 20%.
