Have you noticed the number of metal road / railway bridges that badly need painting. I seem to recall in my childhood that they were done often. Now they just seem to be rusting. Perhaps there is a view that they have passed their expected life - but a lot really look in bad condition. I think it is a trend to omit maintenance of most things nowadays. I hate to think what the newer steel buildings will look like in a few years when the paint starts to flake.
