There are clear majorities in support of the #BuildBackBetter agenda, and even for the watered down Machin Synematic Universe version we got through the #InfrastructureBill. If the Dems could mobilize voters - by convincing them that they were committed to *doing things* rather than capitulating - they could win strong majorities in 2024.

I’ve been in Lowndes County, Alabama, on a few occasions and spent time with Catherine Flowers. She’s an amazing environmental justice leader! This is 100% right:

“With millions of dollars coming to Alabama through the bipartisan infrastructure law—those funds should be going to these communities that have been left behind for too long, to finally give them the basic public health infrastructure they deserve.”

The #Pittsburgh #bridge that collapsed was steel, rated "poor". From http://bridge.watch, here are #steelbridges with similar usage rated "poor". https://bridge.watch/?plot_type=year_built&material=3%2c4&service_under=5&ratings=4&min_traffic=14500 (I added permalinks) #BridgeCollapse #infrastructure #Infrastructurebill @USDOTFHWA@twitter.com @ASCETweets@twitter.com @USDOT@twitter.com

Finished processing highway data with @observablehq@twitter.com from the past 30 years, and it looks like highway #bridges have gotten better (and some states just didn't always report info🤦‍♀️).

The #WestSeattleBridge has been closed since 2020 because of significant cracking (to be repaired by @wsp@twitter.com). We used http://bridge.watch to flesh out a case study on similar #bridges in the U.S. #InfrastructureBill @ASCETweets@twitter.com https://bridge.watch/posts/west_seattle_bridge

95% of #bridges in Illinois with 200 ft or longer spans are #steelbridges (231/245). 30% of them are in poor shape (all but one were built prior to 1980), and have an average traffic volume of 23000 vehicles/day #Infrastructurebill #bridgeengineering http://bridge.watch

Iowa has the highest proportion of poorly rated #bridges on a state by state basis. 1 in 5 in Iowa are in poor or worse condition. https://bridge.watch #InfrastructureWeek #InfrastructureBill #dataviz

There are also a surprising number of #timber #bridges in service in the U.S., a quarter of which are in poor condition. https://bridge.watch #InfrastructureWeek #InfrastructureBill #dataviz

Interesting things I've found so far: New York is *big* on #steelbridges, 70% of which are in fair or poor condition. https://bridge.watch #InfrastructureWeek #InfrastructureBill #dataviz

https://bridge.watch uses @d3js_org@twitter.com to aggregate information (including condition ratings, traffic, and year built) about #USBridges on a geographic basis. You can additionally filter by #bridge types and materials. #InfrastructureBill #InfrastructureWeek #dataviz

The new infrastructure bill spends more at any more time on Bridges and amtrak since the government first started funding them. Had we kept up on if for the past few decades we wouldn't need to

RT from Brock Pierce (@brockpierce)

"This is a very important topic that deserves its own forum and doesn't belong buried in the back of a 2k+ page bill with only days of notice.
It's not an issue of taxation, it's the issue of regulation."
