A multiple line chart showing the percentage of U.S. bridges by good, fair and poor condition between 2005 and 2024 with fair bridges growing and good and poor bridges declining over the time period.
Bridge condition before 2016 was calculated due to a change in how ratings were recorded. Some bridges before 2019 were excluded due to insufficient data. Data excludes culvert bridges.
