Here's an interesting gem I found.
Stimulus money was given to states to repair our infrastructure, however the states are using the money elsewhere.
I know...SHOCKER, right?
The AP then researched each bridge using the latest inspection data available from the Transportation Department.
This analysis found that:
- Many states did not make bridge work a priority in stimulus spending. More than half plan work on fewer than two dozen bridges and 18 states plan fewer than 10 projects.
- In 24 states, at least half of the bridges being worked on with stimulus money were not deficient.
- In 15 states, at least two-thirds of the bridges receiving stimulus money are not deficient.
