Civil engineers give state’s infracture a C-

Connecticut’s roads and wastewater treatment systems are in need of major repairs costing billions over the next two decades while issues facing the state’s bridges and drinking water are nearly as bad. As a result state leaders and residents should consider spending more than $40 billion over the next two decades to make major repairs and upgrades. That’s what the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers determined in their inaugural 2018 Report Card for Connecticut’s Infrastructure which was released Tuesday. Combine the grades for their evaluation of bridges, drinking water, rails, roads and wastewater and the state gets an overall C- on its infrastructure. Those are the five areas the engineers focused on.
