WEST OF WINNEMUCCA, Humboldt, Nevada
Inventory: FHWA NBI 2024 · last ETL August 2026
FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
CROSS ROAD in Humboldt, Nevada sits above 13% of rated Nevada bridges on inventory load rating (26 t), while its 1970 build year is earlier than 41% of Humboldt's recorded-year cohort (54 bridges).
CROSS ROAD in Humboldt, Nevada is rated Poor in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1970, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 3. 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.

FHWA NBI Program ↗How to read this record
CROSS ROAD is in the federal Poor condition category. That is a component-based result, not a closure order.
- NBI condition ratings reflect the latest record in this annual dataset, not a live status. Current routine inspection intervals are risk-based.
- Understand what Poor condition does and does not mean before drawing conclusions. Poor condition explained
- Compare CROSS ROAD against other structures in Humboldt and across Nevada. Nevada bridges
- Noticed visible damage or a safety concern? Report it to the agency that owns the bridge, or call 911 in an emergency. How to report a bridge
Condition codes come straight from the FHWA National Bridge Inventory and are not a real-time safety judgment. Only the owning agency, a state DOT, county, or other owner, can post, restrict, or close a bridge.
