Treece lies.

That bridge was considered “functionally obsolete” in 2000, and again in 2010.

The Democrats running this state have no shame. We’re just lucky no one died.

Per goskagit.com:

“The bridge, built in 1955, was considered structurally deficient in 1992, and functionally obsolete in 2000 and 2010, according to the National Bridge Inventory.”

I've driven over this bridge thousands of times, more than any other. They re-did the Hwy 99 bridge a half-mile to the east several years back; I'd always wondered if/when this one would likewise be fixed.

North Burlington Blvd/Riverside Drive already are clogged with traffic, with a Costco, a Cabela's, and several resturants. The intersection that half of that traffic will go through (College Way and Riverside) is already the fourth-busiest in the state. What a MESS.

Very thankful that this accident took no human life.

I thought the Stimulus Bill was supposed to have fixed these infrastructure “shovel ready” projects. Just where did all that money go again?

[muawiyah]

This bridge and an even longer span in Minnesota, were subjected to years of Democrat politician neglect and abuse.

They'll bleet and holler about needing more money for infrastructure, and when they get it unless it buys tons of cement and rebar, they'll spend it on something else.

They just don't care!
