Last week 60 Minutes on CBS featured a segment on the country’s failing infrastructure. See the video here. They clearly made the point that funding must be secured to repair and rebuild our nation’s bridges.  We at KBP are part of the solution by offering cost effective preservation systems that extend the life of bridges while minimally impacting the travelling public.  Please take a few minutes to watch the news report in the link above, and share it with anyone who may be interested in this critical and time sensitive issue.

Please come see us at booth 309 in Miami, 12/4-12/5, at the 2014 ABC Conference
