Inventory: FHWA NBI 2024 · last ETL August 2026
FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
SR1167 in Cleveland, North Carolina sits above 7% of rated North Carolina bridges on inventory load rating (21 t), while its 1925 build year is earlier than 98% of Cleveland's recorded-year cohort (270 bridges).
SR1167 in Cleveland, North Carolina is rated Poor in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1925, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 4. The lowest applicable rating sets the federal condition category, so this Poor result describes the weakest reported component rather than the structure as a whole. No NBI category is a closure decision or a live crossing-safety verdict.
