Every four years, the Maine Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers provides a comprehensive assessment which results in the Report Card for Maine’s Infrastructure. The purpose of the report card is to raise public awareness of the importance of modern and well-maintained infrastructure.

Maine’s infrastructure cannot be taken for granted and requires on-going maintenance and continuous planning. We believe discussion of the issues detailed in the Report Cards will lead to a greater understanding of the current and future needs of our state, prompting decision makers in our communities, the state legislature, and our congressional delegation to formulate policies and provide the necessary funding to address our infrastructure needs.

The 2024 report card, with national context, is on the National Infrastructure Report Card website.

A news release on the findings is available at Maine's infrastructure grade improves to a 'C'
