Improve Parkwide Transportation Infrastructure

To further Yellowstone's Invest in Infrastructure strategic priority, the park is committed to improving parkwide transportation infrastructure. Key actions include developing a more cogent deferred maintenance reduction plan, improving the quality of data and prioritization processes, and taking better advantage of current and future funding to improve asset conditions and protect investments.

Yellowstone has an asset inventory valued at $3.8 billion, with a deferred maintenance level estimated at over $700 million. In 2019-2020, the park focused heavily on developing better data on the condition of its asset portfolio while prioritizing and formulating projects needing investment.
