Go on a virtual tour of the 124 poor-rated bridges on CDOT’s system that the money from your increased auto registration fees, under the new FASTER legislation, is earmarked to provide repair and replacement for. Some date from the 1920s and 1930s; some are made of wood. Play the video, then go to the map below to see these bridges, their locations, ages, ratings and where they place on the “road” to replacement — from those not yet on the program path for funding all the way to the ones already under reconstruction.
