I don't work for Dan or Matty. I have no special knowledge of their operations or maintenance schedule of their bridge.

I've seen the NBI rating aggregated in various ways. The state's annual report has bridge conditions aggregated into 'good', 'fair', and 'poor'. See page 15.

It would be more concerneding if the inspector found problems that caused the bridge to be classified as structurally deficient that caused some sort of weight restrictions for traffic crossing the bridge.

The staterecently published a list of all MDOT owned bridges. Pay attention to the three rating categories for major bridge elements deck, superstructure, and substructures. Note the number of bridges that are found to be structurally deficient. Being structurally deficient does not necessarily mean the bridge is unsafe--it just means that the state has to pay attention to the elements that require attention so the bridge does not fall down.
