MDOT warns that 100+ aging bridges need work, or will have to close
A warning from the Michigan Department of Transportation. Without additional funding, more than 100 bridges across the state could be forced to close by the year 2035, impacting 1.8 million drivers daily. WWJ's Greg Bowman spoke with Rebecca Curtis, Chief Bridge Engineer for MDOT. She says more than 2/3 of state-owned bridges are more than 50 years — which is around the time when most bridges are replaced.
