To highlight the dwindling amount of time left in providing for the Highway Trust Fund, which ends July 31 without Congressional action, the U.S. Department of Transportation has released road and bridge conditions for each state.
As the deadline approaches, legislators are starting to warm up to action with a tax reform proposal and cosponsoring a previously proposed bill that would help fund transportation projects. And this week there could be some efforts to provide an extension for the Highway Trust Fund.
The statistics for the USDOT’s bridge and road conditions come from 2013 data from the Federal Highway Administration and the American Society of Civil Engineers 2013 Report Card for America’s Infrastructure.
