In recent years, various studies have indicated that the condition of America’s infrastructure has reached alarming levels, with many structures past their intended lifespan. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) releases periodic reports that consistently highlight the need for immediate investment and repair. Not only does an insufficient infrastructure create challenges for transportation and logistics, but it also affects critical sectors such as energy and water management, which can lead to severe consequences for public health and safety.

America’s infrastructure is at a critical crossroads, with many of its essential systems—roads, bridges, public transportation, and utilities—showing significant signs of wear and inadequacy. The challenges posed by an aging infrastructure are not just localized issues; they ripple through the economy, impacting safety, productivity, and the quality of life for millions of citizens. A deteriorating infrastructure threatens to undermine the very foundation of the nation, leading to increased congestion, accidents, and interruptions in services essential for daily living.
