The Maryland Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers announced the 2025 Report Card for Maryland’s Infrastructure today, covering 13 infrastructure categories, and giving the state's infrastructure an overall grade of ‘C.’ The ‘C’ grade is the same as its 2020 grade and matches the national grade of ‘C’ on the 2025 Report Card for America’s Infrastructure, which was just released in March.
The Report Card shows Maryland’s infrastructure is performing adequately to meet current needs, but investments must be made to ensure Maryland has infrastructure systems that can be successful long-term.
The 2025 grades are:
| Grade | Categories |
| B | Ports, Solid Waste |
| B- | Bridges, Rail |
| C+ | Aviation, Hazardous Waste, Stormwater, Wastewater |
| C | Dams, Drinking Water |
| C- | Roads |
| D+ | Energy, Transit |
The 2025 Report Card for Maryland’s Infrastructure provides insight needed to start conversations and ignite action to improve the 2025 grades and, as a result, the state’s future by:
- Establishing sustainable funding mechanisms;
- Prioritizing resilience and redundancy;
- Modernizing aging systems and promote innovation and technology adoption for a growing population;
- Protecting the Chesapeake Bay through integrated water management;
- Enhance coordination and delivery.
