Top Challenges Government Facing In Solving US
Infrastructure Crisis
2
An Overview

• Certainly, the United States is one of the most
  powerful countries across the world. However, US
  bridge infrastructure is falling apart.
• Roads, bridges and the entire infrastructure is
  in bad shape. Experts stated that the number of
  structurally deficient and functionally obsolete
  bridges in the United States has reached a
  critical point.

What is the current state of the US bridge
infrastructure?

• According to a recent report by the American Road
  Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA),
  the total number of defunct bridges in America is
  54,259. Nearly, 8.86 percent of bridges in the
  United States are rated structurally deficient
  and need repair. Unfortunately, publicly
  available funds are insufficient to solve the
  infrastructure crisis of America.
• Well, public private partnership or PPP is one of
  the best solutions to bring US infrastructure
  back in shape. Basically, the public private
  partnership is an agreement between government
  and private bridge infrastructure companies.
  Private bridge infrastructure companies help
  local governments for solving the infrastructure
  crisis in the United States.

Lets dive into two major challenges that the US
government is facing for solving the
infrastructure crisis

1. A Lack of Government Funding
2. Aversion to Unfamiliar Solutions

A Lack of Government Funding

• In 2017, Americas overall infrastructure got a
  score of D from the American Society of Civil
  Engineers (ASCE). Clearly, US infrastructure
  needs repair but publicly available funds are not
  sufficient for this.
• In fact, experts estimated that repair could cost
  1 trillion. Thus, the public private partnership
  is the best solution.

Aversion to Unfamiliar Solutions

• Lack of awareness of the actual situation is one
  of the major challenges that the government is
  facing in the process of shaping US
  infrastructure.
• However, most of the Americans are aware of the
  situation but still, more awareness is required.
  Thankfully, the US government is trying new
  innovative and cost-effective solutions.
