| Deck Condition | Critical - Advanced deterioration of primary structural elements. Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present or scour may have removed substructure support. Unless closely monitored it may be necessary to close the bridge until corrective action is taken. |
| Superstructure Condition | Serious - Loss of section, deterioration, spalling or scour have seriously affected primary structural components. Local failures are possible. Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present. |
| Substructure Condition | Critical - Advanced deterioration of primary structural elements. Fatigue cracks in steel or shear cracks in concrete may be present or scour may have removed substructure support. Unless closely monitored it may be necessary to close the bridge until corrective action is taken. |
| Culvert Condition | Not Applicable - Structure is not a culvert. |
| Channel Condition | Poor - Bank and embankment protection is severely undermined. River control devices have severe damage. Large deposits of debris are in the channel. |
| Railings | Inspected feature does not meet currently acceptable standards or a safety feature is required and none is provided. |
| Transitions | Inspected feature does not meet currently acceptable standards or a safety feature is required and none is provided. |
| Approach Guardrail | Inspected feature does not meet currently acceptable standards or a safety feature is required and none is provided. |
| Approach Guardrail Ends | Inspected feature does not meet currently acceptable standards or a safety feature is required and none is provided. |
| Deck Geometry Evaluation | Not applicable |
| Underclearance Evaluation | Not applicable |
| Approach Roadway Alignment | Basically intolerable requiring high priority of replacement |
| Scour Critical Bridges | Bridge with "unknown" foundation that has not been evaluated for scour. Since risk cannot be determined, flag for monitoring during flood events and, if appropriate, closure. |
