COLUMBIA -- Just outside of Columbia, AAA has named one of the city's bridges the worst in the state.

More than a half million motorists drive over the I-26 bridge that passes above the CN&L railroad tracks each week.

The structure has been given this title for nine out of the last ten years.

But despite the bridge's bad rep, SCDOT says this year was the first time since 2001 it was able to reduce the overall number of substandard bridges in the state.
