Infrastructure: Hitting the Cost Wall
Charles Clowdis, managing director of North American Markets for Global Insight's Trade and Transportation Group, spoke recently at our Fifth Annual Construction Web Event: Surviving the Perfect Storm. He discussed issues associated with the nation's crumbling infrastructure—almost 67,000 miles of federal-aided highways rated unacceptable, and 53,990 bridges nationwide deemed structurally deficient or functionally obsolete.
With nearly 1/2 trillion dollars needed to remedy U.S. roads and bridges, Clowdis discussed the cause of the problem and outlined possible solutions.
