Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71720722 Agree, why they are stopping it is beyond me. The main girder beneath the roadway is completely failed? I dunno, its almost like they don't want traffic underneath a bridge that might collapse? |

User ID: 80362539 United States05/14/2021 03:51 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Straight cut at the top and this didnt just happen recently you can see that. If it was gonna collapse it would have already done so cuz its a old cut. Plus, who is to say this is the Memphis Arkansas bridge. This could be any green bridge. This cut they did doesnt affect barges whatsoever.....only a zombie would beLIEve this BS....just like the pipeline BS....

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 75886748 United States05/14/2021 04:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78327618 Barge industry is under the jurisdiction of the Coastal Guard and the Corp of Engineers. In this case also under TDOT, TN. The above give orders that’s why barges aren’t moving nor they can turn around. My understanding is that when the Corp assess the problem and how they’ll fix it the traffic UNDER the bridge will resume. The Barge companies can sue so the traffic will be resumed soon. Looks like the top section of the crack was cut very straight line It's a POWER/Control freak issue. They are just flexing their muscle to show them who's boss. The have a crack. What are you talking about?! have you seen a picture of this crack????? |

User ID: 75886748 United States05/14/2021 04:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As of right now they are allowing barge traffic through the bridge right now, that may change at any time. Barges are backed up 50 miles on the lower side. I'm on a boat pushing barges, headed that way right now. We are approx 70 miles below the bridge. Hopefully that barge back log, will be cleared before we get there. Wickerpossum |

User ID: 80358305 United States05/14/2021 05:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gropin' Joe Biden will save us!!! I'm sure he rounded up some of our best steel engineers and got them to drop everything to put together a temporary fix to get traffic moving both above and below the bridge while we wait for the new replacement steel piece to be made. Gropin' Joe Biden is doing that. Right? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2476229 That idiot won't save anything, but good engineers could cobble up a safe fix quickly. We have many good engineers, they just need the authority to get to work. |
