its really sad... i saw on the news, they say the bridge suppose to last for 60 years but its only been there for 30 years... so they are investigating the reason to the collapse...

i wonder how did those civil engineers did the math of the life expectancy for the bridge and also did the developers cheat out on the material to yield greater profit?

they better fix up the gardiner expressway, i don't want that thing collapsing =(

sorry for those who got hurt/killed in the incident.. nobody could've expect it =(

i read that the "road works" people were warned about falling pieces of concrete earlier in the day......guess that wasn't enuf of a "warning" to have them investigate and close the road
