    I admire so much what all of the workers are doing to replace the old bridge. Please keep up the good work!

    The image @ 1:15 gives great scale to the size in comparison to the cars in the parking lot in the foreground.

    not a total loss , the steel is recyclable .
  • @milroybyrde1106
    Why did the ship come closer to the bridge and lose power to turn towards the beam post. Does it have to go sideways once the ship loses power and 🤔🤫🫣👈👉

  • @piehound
    In other words . . . SLICING AND DICING.
  • @greghammett5739
    Most long bridges like this one has breakaway points in the bridge so it seperates during earthquakes. This one didn't WHY? They need to bring in an out of state Purchase and Accounting firm if they insist on rebuilding this . SOMETHING IS VERY PECULIAR AND THEY'RE TRYING TO COVER UP!
  • @rose106
    When are they going to release the people that on on the ship.
  • @chuck2306
    the loss of the steel mill why did we loose it
  • @user-co7fb6qe5w
    Whoever was operating the Dali realized she lost main power, backup power and emergency power decided to drop the anchor causing the ship to veer starboard.( of course in hindsight as a Monday morning quarterback by not dropping the anchor and try to steer towards middle of span we wouldn't be having this conversation. ) Still awaiting honest answers to reasonable questions like who greenlighted the Dali as seaworthy? Someone thought it was good to go on a 27 day voyage to Sri Lanka halfway around the globe? Don't know why escort tugboats were ordered but disembarked before reaching open sea. Coincidentally the Dali lost all main power, backup power and emergency power moments after the tugs pulled away. It's been 24 days tomorrow still no factual answers to all relevant issues/questions.
  • Wasn’t that nice seeing all the goods pouring in like lumber while our lumber industries are being shut down people out of work we have people working hard to make that happen.
