Several important new research-and-development studies have provided essential tools and resources previously unavailable, and many agencies are starting to amass valuable databases of information about inventory, structures, and condition. A vision of how these diverse products of numerous researchers and sponsors can be brought together to greatly increase the practicality and value of bridge life-cycle cost analysis at the project level is presented.
