We had a bridge under I-75 get hit by a big excavator in a flat bed
and it was seriously damaged.
The original estimate was they would need to replace about half the
girders but they managed to patch it up somehow without doing all of
that. I went by there the other day and it looks line they just
patched up the girders with site applied concrete.
I'll bet they did more than that....
I'm sure but originally they said the girders had to be replaced. That
did not happen.
Years ago, when I was in college and working nights, I passed a dump truck
near Army st. On US 101. Just after passing, his bed came up and hit and
dropped the pedestrian overpass just north of Army. Blocking the complete
freeway. I was not even off the Central Expressway when they announced the
freeway being closed. Maybe 5 minutes after the accident.
