Background

Plainbridges is a data journalism portal that specializes in analyzing data related to bridges, drawing from public government data to offer insights into infrastructure. The team produces content that is compiled by our editorial team, and does not accept payment from any entities it covers to maintain impartiality. Through this approach, Plainbridges provides reliable information on bridge conditions and projects for the public.

How to use this site

PlainBridges publishes reference material, data-driven pages, and explanatory tools. Use the source information, assumptions, limitations, and methodology shown on the individual page to decide whether it fits your situation.

Published information can summarize source data or provide an estimate; it is not professional financial, medical, legal, or engineering advice. For an important decision, compare the relevant page with a primary source or a qualified professional.

How information is presented

Pages that present data or estimates identify the available source, method, and material limitations. Results can differ from real-world outcomes because inputs, rules, rates, rounding, data coverage, and individual circumstances vary.

The methodology page explains the site-level approach and limitations. Check the source information on the page you are using rather than treating site-wide wording as a substitute for the current source.

Feedback

If you find an error, stale figure, or missing context on any page we publish, please use the contact page or write to hello@plainbridges.com with the URL and the issue.
