Harris County commissioners voted Tuesday to demolish and rebuild parts of the under-construction Beltway 8 bridge over the Houston Ship Channel after the original designs were found to have "significant" flaws.

Uh, I think it might have been a good idea to review the designs before construction.

That, and just what triggered the design review so late into the project?

For the curious, a noncriminal error was discovered late in the process by a student, many articles/videos on this building:

” In this video we get to hear Diane’s version of the story and how she learned about the repairs and how her work contributed to saving this important structure. This is truly an amazing story and it is awesome that we get to hear it from the person that lived it.”
