Pennsylvania has 3,353 bridges in poor condition. Search our county-by-county bridge database

A Pittsburgh bridge on Friday morning collapsed just hours before President Joe Biden was set to tout his $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill, underscoring the need for federal funding to fix the country’s numerous deficient roads and bridges.

The National Bridge Inventory has identified more than 45,000 bridges in the U.S. that have deteriorated so much they are listed in poor condition by the Federal Highway Administration.

Pennsylvania has the second-most bridges in poor condition, and the state is set to receive nearly $2 billion from the infrastructure bill to fix its aging and deficient bridges.
