Minnesota Department of Transportation has just posted a new web site containing substantial information on the history of the I-35W bridge inspections.

Check here.

Also there is a very interesting inspection report dated June 0f 2006.

Check here .

VERY nice find.

Because it will useful to see what others come up with independently, I will refrain from commenting on the contents and relevancy of the 2006 report right now, but I would say there are significant revelations there.

In order to forestall future claims of piggybacking, I will say that I’m referring to probably the most significant series of structural events since the completion of bridge construction, right in the middle of this thread’s long running primary area of interest and leave it at that for now.

More on this after others have a chance to read the report and comment.
