A report card on Louisiana’s roads, bridges, levees and ports will be issued in September. The Louisiana Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers says it will grade the state’s infrastructure in order to provide an objective analysis and determine where to best commit resources. Kam Movassaghi, president of Fenstermaker, an engineering consulting firm and a former secretary of the Department of Transportation and Development, is heading up the project team. Nine categories of infrastructure will be graded, Movassaghi says. In studying the scores, elected officials will be able to make better decisions about infrastructure spending.
