So it's taken us 80 years or so to build out this infrastructure, and it turns out it hasn't paid for itself so we need to double-down and build it again... At our current pace it'll take 80 years to repair all the structurally deficient bridges in the US, a report finds
(CNN) — Officials have dubbed Monday's bridge collapse in Tennessee a freak accident, but that might be turning a blind eye to a larger issue.
Bridges across the United States are deteriorating, and a new report estimates it will take more than 80 years to fix all of them.
