This book presents an in-depth look at US infrastructure and its
challenges in the 21st century. While infrastructure has received
considerable attention in recent years, much of the discussion has
concentrated on physical, economic, or noneconomic conditions. The
Trump administration has heightened interest in the topic,
promising infrastructure spending during his tenure, yet little
demonstrable progress has been made. This book brings together a
multi-disciplinary perspective-structural, technological, economic,
financial, political, planning, and policy-that has been largely
absent in discussions on the subject, to provide a clearer and
broader understanding of the challenges facing US infrastructure.
The book is divided into three parts: Part I looks at the
challenges from a structural, technological, and sustainability
perspective; Part II from an economic, productivity, and finance
perspective; and Part III from an institutional, security, and
political perspective. Written primarily for policy makers,
managers, and administrators in public and private organizations,
as well as individuals and academics with an interest in the future
of US infrastructure, this book provides an in-depth analysis of
the US infrastructure problem, its causes and consequences, and
suggests timely, specific measures that may be taken at the state,
local, and federal levels to improve and better secure our roads,
transit, public buildings, economy, and technology.
