FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
LINDEKE ST in Spokane, Washington sits above 96% of rated Washington bridges on inventory load rating (68 t), while its 1962 build year is earlier than 72% of Spokane's recorded-year cohort (307 bridges).
LINDEKE ST in Spokane, Washington is rated Poor in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1962, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 3.

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