A oil or chemical fire, perhaps in a rail car under the I85 bridge in downtown Atlanta between I75 ,400, and I85 caused a section of I85 to collapse 1 hour ago. Traffic is expected to stopped for weeks until the elevated highway section is replaced.
I see you don’t live in Atlanta and/or haven’t looked in detail at where the bridge is at and/or don’t really read maps.
Neither has Columbia.
the Cheshire Bridge Rd, Piedmont Rd exits,

east of town by the 400 ???
I should be OK then...
Unlikely as truthers are a knuckle headed bunch.
Anyone who has built a homemade rocket motor out of PVC pipe and H2O2 knows the energy is there...it just wants to be released.
No. Those odious folks will find a way to excuse it.
Nothing will convince those idiots that Bush wasn’t part of the conspiracy to fly those planes into the WTC towers.
Thank you. I understand fiber optic cables underneath the roadway.
Really, really funny.
I went off what the news was reporting....as to location
I live outside the perimeter....actually very far outside. More like the north woods
No work for topologies ooo ooo!
Damn autocorrect.
I typed “yoooooooooooo!”
[Guess this “low temperature “ fire collapsing a bridge in only an hour will put to rest World Trade Center 1/2 diameter bars sagging and failing in 2001, 9/11.]
Oh of course not. Know a guy who still thinks that “the steel melted” is the “official story”. Therefore, it’s all a conspiracy. Of course.
BTW, we never went to the Moon and also ..... the Earth is flat. I thought he was joking. He wasn’t.
In case you all want to see more pics/videos.
This is the WSB traffic guy and on-air dude!

Should be a Google maps view of the cables under the bridge.
Well then 285 should be fun this Spring and I’m sure dragging well into Summer. Certainly top end. Haha!
When I lived in Atlanta their was gas truck explosion that blew up the bridge between 400 north bound over 285 East.
They State worked around the clock and finished it in 3 months. That was the fastest I’ve seen them rebuild a bridge.
My last five years I worked from home. So I was no longer affected by the horrific Atlanta traffic. The only two metro cities worse than Atlanta are Washington DC and Los Angeles for traffic.
Good rule of thumb is that steel will lose 1/2 of its strength at 1000* F.

Didn’t the Muslim mayor of Atlanta recently boot the Fire Chief of the city for being a Bible believing Christian?
And the RINO governor of Georgia refused to protect Christian business owners?
