Bridge Inspection Program delivered the highest level of bridge safety. Objectives for this audit were to evaluate FHWA’s: (1) implementation of data-driven, risk-based oversight to target bridge safety risks most in need of attention, particularly those related to load ratings and postings; and (2) promotion of state use of bridge management systems.
