15 t Inventory load rating Lower than 96% of rated Pennsylvania bridges

SR 2037 in Washington, Pennsylvania sits above 4% of rated Pennsylvania bridges on inventory load rating (15 t), while its 1958 build year is earlier than 67% of Washington's recorded-year cohort (655 bridges).

SR 2037 in Washington, Pennsylvania is rated Poor in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1958, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 4.
