Summary
National Highway Bridge Reconstruction and Inspection Act of 2007 - Amends federal transportation law to revise the national highway bridge replacement and rehabilitation program to direct the Secretary of Transportation to develop a risk-based priority process for states to assign priority for the replacement or rehabilitation of all federal-aid highways bridges found to be structurally deficient or functionally obsolete. Requires states, as a condition for receiving federal assistance, to develop, and annually update, an approved five-year performance plan for highway bridge inspection and rehabilitation and replacement. Directs the Secretary to: (1) annually revise, as necessary, the data contained in the national bridge inventory; (2) make such data more accessible to the public; (3) update national bridge inspection standards; (4) expand the national training program for bridge inspectors to ensure that all bridge inspectors are appropriately trained and certified; and (5) revise federal regulations concerning the qualification of state highway bridge inspection personnel to require program managers and team leaders to be licensed professional engineers. Revises national bridge inspection standards to provide for annual inspections of structurally deficient highway bridges, including biennial inspections of those bridges that have not been determined to be structurally deficient.
