Congested highways, polluted beaches, overflowing sewers, corroding bridges, overcrowded schools. Maybe you've seen them on your way to work? Taking your kids to school? Or maybe they cause you to alter your life in some way . Did you pay more for your home to avoid a lengthy, congested commute? Have you taken your family to the pool instead of the local beach because of pollution concerns? And we pay in other ways not as obvious - our groceries cost more because the truck that delivered them to our local market spent hours delayed in traffic or was detoured around a deteriorating bridge. Let your elected leaders know that you demand change! Inform your community that they need to get involved! ASCE's Report Card for America's Infrastructure has been grading our infrastructure since 1998, with the most recent grades released March 9, 2005 As designers and stewards of the nation's infrastructure, civil engineers offer their evaluations of the structures that support our daily lives, from roads and bridges to drinking and wastewater systems. Crumbling infrastructure has a direct impact on your personal and economic health. Maintaining America's standard of living depends on your support!
