State Representative Lydia Glaize (D-Fairburn) today celebrated a new study conducted by ConsumerAffairs, which found that Georgia has the best bridge quality in the United States for 2024.
“I am ecstatic to hear of the news that Georgia ranked number one in having the best bridge quality of the U.S. in 2024,” said Rep. Glaize. “I am especially happy for the constituents of House District 67, who have seen first-hand the improvements that have been made to Line Creek Bridge, which was rebuilt in 2016. As we continue to revamp our bridges across Coweta and Fulton counties, we celebrate the much-needed advancements to our state infrastructure and the direct impact they have on folks back home. This report is a true testament of the priority we have placed on improving and caring for our transportation system and infrastructure.”
ConsumerAffairs reported that Georgia achieved this ranking due to improved bridge conditions since 2009. Since that year, Georgia has increased its share of bridges in “good” condition from 51 percent to 75 percent, according to the report.
