INTRODUCTION
The ASCE-MS report card is an independent
assessment of infrastructure in our state.
The goal is to increase understanding of
the current and future infrastructure needs
in Mississippi and prompt decision makers
in government to formulate policies and
direct the necessary funding to address
Mississippi’s infrastructure needs.
