Misleading headline! OF COURSE! DRAMA!

The whole bridge isn’t going to “collapse”. It has multiple spans and likely only one is in question.

If a bridge (or SECTION of said bridge) is “at risk of an imminent collapse,” can it just be “repaired”?

It seems to me that “cracks” in a bridge, serious enough to claim it is “at risk of an imminent collapse,” needs more than a little caulk (repair).

More like replace an entire section. They don’t make Band Aids that big.

OR ... the seriousness of the problem is overstated.

So just cross your fingers when you cross that part of the bridge?

There was an entire bridge wiped out near us a year or so ago. They rebuilt it within a few short months.
