Structurally Deficient Bridges in Your Area

RE: Structurally Deficient Bridges in Your Area

Why do we continue to use them???

RE: Structurally Deficient Bridges in Your Area

To get hit by a truck and used as stew......

Which may start happening to us unless we start fixing them!!

RE: Structurally Deficient Bridges in Your Area

Structurally deficient does not necessarily mean unsafe. Probably should get serious attention in the near future, though it could be something as simple as water overtopping during flood conditions with the structure itself being completely sound.
