AI Summary
This bill amends Title 23 of the United States Code to require states to obligate a minimum of 20% of their total highway funding to projects that repair, improve, rehabilitate, or replace bridges. The goals of this provision are to support the achievement of a state of good repair for the nation's bridges, improve the safety, efficiency, and reliability of the movement of people and freight over bridges, and reduce the number of bridges in poor condition, bridges at risk of falling into poor condition, and bridges that do not meet current design standards or load and traffic requirements. The bill outlines eligible bridge projects, allows for flexibility in meeting the minimum investment requirement, and requires the Secretary of Transportation to annually publish a report on bridge investment.
