MSNBC - Not an association, but a very
interesting website:
Bridge Tracker from MSNBC allows you to check on
the condition of bridges you will be crossing in your travels. This
interactive map shows the
condition and inspection dates for more than 100,000 bridges in the
U.S. that are crossed by at least 10,000 vehicles per day. The
records come from the latest National Bridge Inventory, as analyzed
by msnbc.com. Inspections through 2006 are included. Only bridges,
on/off ramps and overpasses within .2 miles of your chosen route are
shown. The locations were provided by state departments of
transportation. Some states are more accurate than others in mapping
their bridges. Go to
