According to the Federal Highway Administration's 2024 National Bridge Inventory, Pocahontas County, Iowa contains 186 public highway bridges. Roughly 19.9% are rated “Good,” 53.8% “Fair,” and 26.3% “Poor.” Poor means the lowest applicable deck, superstructure, substructure, or culvert rating is 4 or below on the 0–9 NBI scale.
