What your feelings about In Minneapolis bridge collapse?
Question by msmomofmany: What your feelings about In Minneapolis bridge collapse?
In Minneapolis bridge collapses, 60 hurt, 9 died, many more body’s still in there cars in water…. Beside being Sad, I’m Mad!, Why wasn’t this bridge replaced with new safer bridge? Why are schools starting here in USA with no Ac or in bad repair? Why are the communities that haven’t been rebuild in new Orleans? or why wasn’t the dams replaced there before they were hit with hurricane Katrina? Why wasn’t there quicker response for the many that didn’t get out in time? Then I think of the billions of dollars that are sent over sea’s for country’s to rebuild their bridges their roads,their dams & building their schools…

What Is The Case Against The Federal Government ?
The Army Corps of Engineers is a federal government agency.
They designed, built, and maintained several waterways that run through the area in and around New Orleans (NOLA).
These waterways were not designed, built, or maintained correctly.
The Army Corps of Engineers and the federal government knew that the waterways they designed, built, and maintained, were at high risk of failure when a hurricane came.
Although the federal government had the ability
had the ability to fix the problems, it did not.
These waterways failed during and after Katrina and caused flooding of the New Orleans area (NOLA), including New Orleans, New Orleans East, 9th Ward, St. Bernard, Plaquemines, and Jefferson.

Q&A: Could the Mn I-35W bridge collapse occur due to added stress by 4 lanes being used to take on 8 lanes traffic
Question by felixnovak80: Could the Mn I-35W bridge collapse occur due to added stress by 4 lanes being used to take on 8 lanes traffic
At the time of the Mn I-35W bridge collapse, 4 lanes of the 8 lanes were under repair and closed off to traffic. This imposed a stress factor increased by diverting all bridge traffic formally using 8 lanes to 4 lanes.

Answer by UCANTCME
Yes it could have and I have seen many bridges everywhere that will do the same thing and this has to put alot of extra stress on the remaining lanes that are being used, very good question…
