Overview

• According to a recent survey report, there are
  more than 617,000 bridges across the United
  States. However, 50 percent of those bridges are
  structurally deficient and functionally obsolete.
  Clearly, the United States is facing an
  infrastructure crisis for the past few years.
  Although, things are getting better after the
  public-private partnership. As per this
  agreement, a bridge infrastructure company
  invests private bridge capital to improve US
  infrastructure.
