Bear Creek Bridge TR406
Posted June 18, 2010, by Matthew Lohry

Given the listed conditions of this bridge, shouldn't it be listed as "functionally obsolete" rather than "structurally deficient"? I understand that this rating comes from the NBI, but sometimes it makes one wonder what their criteria for rating these structures really are.
