A new infrastructure approach could save millions per year, say researchers
With infrastructure negotiations currently taking center stage in the United States’ political discourse, researchers at the University of Georgia (UGA) have published their findings on how a new approach to infrastructure maintenance would save federal and state governments millions of dollars per year. A study produced by the UGA’s College of Engineering proposes a new model for bridge infrastructure which prioritizes the incremental maintenance of key components, in contrast to current national strategies that favor replacement and rebuilding.
