Re: Bridge collapses in Minnesota
I don't cross that bridge that much - almost crossed it last week - it's about 60 feet off the ground.
heard they were resurfacing - I know that stretch of 35W was closed this weekend cause I tried to cross it but couldn't - train was passing under one side of it and the span collapsed on the tracks, so maybe the freight train vibrations took something down -
reports are it was shaking and rocking and then just started collapsing like it was made of cards -
one fatality (possibly 3) - local news is keeping us up to date - I'm about a mile away at work -
about 100K cars cross it every day -
