Rural bridges and roads strain state highway system
Stevens noted lawmakers are funneling rural bridges and highways to the department each session. Many bridges are in poor condition as municipalities are unwilling or unable to maintain them. Pennsylvania has 41 600 miles of roads and bridges on the state maintained system. Traffic loads on rural bridges are rising. The largest molybdenum mine is at Climax Colorado, a metal used to strengthen steel.
