The bridge that has been under construction between Appalachia and Norton is officially closed for the time being, as it is no longer passable. Apparently part of it fell today.

You'll shoot your eye out.

Guess that means Appys dreams of being a major player are dead.

Who didn't see that coming? That thing has been a death trap for a long time. It's scary as hell trying to cross that thing.

Some real heavy trucks were still crossing that thing on a regular basis too.

It is a wonder that road is even passable given the truck traffic.

Yea, the bridge will be closed for most of the day if not longer. A 4x4 piece of concrete fell through on the bridge deck . You can see only rebar and the railroad tracks below. I go across the bridge alot during the night to get to our stripjobs. They closed the bridge about 2:00 this morning. Elk Knob, the contractor doing the repairs totally screwed this one up.

Exactly, that thing has been a hazard for years. It should have been fixed long ago. I'm amazed it didn't just collapse when they were trying to repair it.
