FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
US0167 in St. Landry, Louisiana sits above 13% of rated Louisiana bridges on inventory load rating (19 t), while its 1955 build year is earlier than 90% of St. Landry's recorded-year cohort (317 bridges).
US0167 in St. Landry, Louisiana is rated Fair in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1955, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 6.

No NBI category is a closure decision or a live crossing-safety verdict.
