PR 6623 in Morovis, Puerto Rico sits above 4% of rated Puerto Rico bridges on inventory load rating (7 t), while its 1940 build year is earlier than 67% of Morovis's recorded-year cohort (15 bridges).
PR 6623 in Morovis, Puerto Rico is rated Poor in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1940, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 4.
