Yes, prioritise the maintenance and repair of existing road and bridges. However, replace where necessary
@9ZZ9XF23wks3W
Partially for maintenance, repair. Otherwise, replace with more efficient yet aesthetically pleasing infrastructure.
@9ZL4RGH1mo1MO
They should be a healthy balance between these two issues. Both repairing/maintaining existing infrastructure and building new infrastructure is equally important/vital
@9SKBZR94mos4MO
Prioritize what needs prioritizing. If there is a road that needs vitals repairs, it should be done; if there is space where a road can be built that would improve the commute for a lot of people, it should be done. If we are building a bridge for the sake of building a bridge.. do better
@8SZTB3Z 5mos5MO
The two are not mutually exclusive and both should have priority depending upon local circumstances.
@9QM465J6mos6MO
It depends on the nature of the infrastructure and how critical it is to the functioning of the country and local community
@9QLS4M26mos6MO
They, should prioritze the maintenance and repair of existing roads and bridges until building new infrastructure replaces the need to repair an existing road or bridge
@9Q8DQSL6mos6MO
Both the construction of new infrastructure and investment in existing infrastructure should be given equal priority.
