Puerto Rico's roads, ports, energy grid and other infrastructure scored an overall D- in the first report card issued for the US commonwealth on Tuesday by an engineering group.
Puerto Rico's roads, ports, energy grid and other infrastructure scored an overall D-minus in the first report card issued for the U.S. commonwealth on Tuesday by an engineering group, which put a price tag of as much as $23 billion over 10 years on needed updates and repairs.
The near-failing grade from the American Society of Civil Engineers comes as the island is still trying to recover from devastating hurricanes that hit in 2017 and as its bankrupt government attempts to restructure about $120 billion of debt and pension obligations in federal court. Most of the island's infrastructure is in"poor condition" and is exhibiting"significant deterioration," according to the report.
