ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: Section 1114 of the Safe,
Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for
Users (SAFETEA–LU) (Pub. L. 109–59;
119 Stat. 1144) continued the highway
bridge program to enable States to
improve the condition of their highway
bridges over waterways, other
topographical barriers, other highways,
and railroads. Section 1114(f) amends
23 U.S.C. 144 by adding subsection (r),
requiring the Secretary of
Transportation (Secretary) to publish in
the Federal Register a report describing
construction materials used in new
Federal-aid bridge construction and
bridge rehabilitation projects.

to 4:15 p.m., e.t., Monday through
Friday, except Federal holidays.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
conformance with 23 U.S.C. 144(r), the
FHWA has produced a report that
summarizes the types of construction
materials used in new bridge
construction and bridge rehabilitation
projects. Data on Federal-aid and nonFederal-aid highway bridges are
included in the report for completeness.
The December 2005 National Bridge
Inventory (NBI) dataset was used to
identify the material types for bridges
that were new or replaced within the
defined time period. The FHWA’s
Financial Management Information
System (FMIS) and the 2005 NBI were
used to identify the material types for
bridges that were rehabilitated within
the defined time period. Currently
preventative maintenance projects are
included in the rehabilitation totals.
The report, which is available at
https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/bridge/britab,
consists of the following tables:
• Construction Materials for New and
Replaced Bridges, a summary report
which includes Federal-aid highways
and non-Federal-aid highways built in
2003 and 2004.
• Construction Materials for
Rehabilitated Bridges, a summary report
which includes Federal-aid and nonFederal-aid highways rehabilitated in
2003 and 2004.
• Construction Materials for
Combined New, Replaced and
Rehabilitated Bridges, a summary report
which combines the first two tables
cited above.
• Federal-aid Highways: Construction
Materials for New and Replaced Bridges
2003, a detailed State-by-State report
with counts and areas for Federal-aid
bridges built or replaced in 2003.
• Non-Federal-aid Highways:
Construction Materials for New and
Replaced Bridges 2003, a detailed Stateby-State report with counts and areas for
non-Federal-aid bridges built or
replaced in 2003.
• Federal-aid Highways: Construction

2004, a detailed State-by-State report
with counts and areas for Federal-aid
bridges built or replaced in 2004.
• Non-Federal-Aid Highways:

non-Federal-aid bridges built or
replaced in 2004.

2004, a detailed State-by-State report
with counts and areas for rehabilitated
Federal-aid bridges 2004.
• Non-Federal-aid Highways:
Construction Materials for Rehabilitated
Bridges 2004, a detailed State-by-State
report with counts and areas for
rehabilitated non-Federal-aid bridges
types in 2004.
• Federal-aid Highways: Construction
Materials for New, Replaced and
Rehabilitated Bridges 2003, which
combines the 2003 reports on new,
replaced and rehabilitated Federal-aid
bridges.
• Non-Federal-aid Highways:
Construction Materials for New,
Replaced and Rehabilitated Bridges
2003, which combines the 2003 reports
on new, replaced and rehabilitated nonFederal-aid bridges.
• Federal-aid Highways: Construction
Materials for New, Replaced and
Rehabilitated Bridges 2004, which
combines the 2004 reports on new,
replaced and rehabilitated Federal-aid
bridges.
• Non-Federal-aid Highways:
Construction Materials for New
Replaced and Rehabilitated Bridges
2004, which combines the 2004 reports
on new, replaced and rehabilitated nonFederal-aid bridges.
The tables provide data for 2 years:
2003 and 2004. The 2003 data is
considered complete for new and
rehabilitated bridges, with a minimal
likelihood of upward changes in the
totals. The 2004 data is considered
partially complete for new bridges and
complete for rehabilitated bridges,
because many new bridges built in 2004
will not appear in the NBI until they are
placed into service the following year.
Therefore, next year’s report will
include 2004’s data on new bridge

construction, because the data will be
complete.
Each table displays simple counts of
bridges and total bridge deck area. Total
bridge deck area is measured in square
meters, by multiplying the bridge length
by the deck width out-to-out. The data
is categorized by the following material
types, which are identified in the NBI:
steel, concrete, pre-stressed concrete
and other. The category ‘‘Other’’
includes wood, timber, masonry,
aluminum, wrought iron, cast iron and
other. Material type is the predominate
type for the main span(s).
