Montana infrastructure gets C grade in White House report

April 12, 2021

Montana has 377 bridges and more than 1,485 miles of highway in poor condition, and 1 in 4 of the state’s public transit vehicles is ready for the scrapyard, according to a new “infrastructure report card” from the Biden White House.

The report card, released as part of the administration’s push for a $2.3 trillion infrastructure package, gives Montana’s overall infrastructure health a C grade and highlights how the package would address various needs.

The report finds Montanans’ commute times have increased by 3.9% since 2011, and the effects of driving on roads in disrepair cost each motorist in the state an average of $472 a year.
