Will Congress act on time? These are key questions, and the answers will have enormous impact on states’ ability to keep up with ever-increasing maintenance and rebuilds of their roads and bridges.&amp;nbsp; In this episode, we welcome Rocky Moretti to the mic — he’s the director of policy and research at TRIP – the National Transportation Research Group, and for the next half-hour, we’re introducing what this major research and voice-to-the-media organization is doing to inform the public, state legislatures, and Congress on the dire road and bridge infrastructure needs of the country.&amp;nbsp; Listen in as we discuss exactly what’s at stake with the federal bill, how public safety is a major consideration, the trends that are hindering states in road funding, and what long-term reauthorization means to construction equipment dealers. &amp;nbsp; Connect with TRIP: Website &amp;nbsp; Connect with IEDA: Visit IEDA Group Website IEDA Events &amp;nbsp; Produced By: Social Chameleon IEDA Podcast http://iedagroup.libsyn.com/website <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/41328335/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/202059845
