Older post but this bridge is still down, over a year after she crashed it. I've never been able to stop and get a picture of it, but it is seriously just a tangled wreck of metal. I think they've been trying to rebuild it so it's visually the same, but Paoli is not a wealthy town. It's one of the four roads off downtown's roundabout, a major route in a minor town.

It looks like a small enough bridge that they could have just scrapped it and brought a whole new one in on a trailer. bill it to the trucking company and get on with life.

Getting money for projects like this in small towns is very, very hard with the current state of politics in the US. State politics is where this money would get allocated, but state politics is at least as bad as federal politics in terms of ideology based gridlock (often it is worse) and fewer citizens pay attention to it.

I'm surprised no one has stolen it. Two jackasses sold a bridge like this for scrap a few years back. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2011/10/bridge-stolen-and-sold-for-scrap/

I swear, some truck drivers and their companies are so stupid that it's a wonder that our roads aren't awash with blood. In NJ, there was a bridge in Kingwood that was partially collapsed by an overweight crane. How overweight? Only 90,500 lbs. That's 90,500 lbs over the maximum allowable non-permit highway weight of 80,000 lbs. The whole thing weighed 170,500 lbs. It took around two years to get a replacement, which probably pissed off the locals no end.

The truck took it out, their insurance company should be on the hook. Hell, you can rent a 45 ton 50' bridge for $75 a day. put that there, take the old one off-site and rebuild it. They could have a bridge there for the cost of a rental car. Make it a toll bridge, strap a coffee can to either end and tell people to put a dollar in the can before driving across. It seems dumb to try to save a 100 year old chunk of scrap because it used to be a bridge. bridges get old and useless.

They want it to look the same because it's a historic bridge. One of the few draws in Paoli is the history. There's pretty much nothing else, and southern Indiana's economy is in the crapper.

Large blaze consumes old steel mill near Buffalo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFynXcOd2PA Go to about 17 minutes in to see it really set off, supposedly started when a guy dropped a hot lightbulb on some cardboard boxes and it went up quickly.

Things like this make me wonder if any workplace safety people get much training on the convergence effect - where you tend to see an influx of people moving towards disaster events when and after they occur. It doesn't always happen, of course. But this video is a good example of some of the reason it often does.

Also it shared a building with a pallet distributor, an industry especially prone to mysterious fires.

I'm a little late but hear me out okay Make the train run beneath the bridge, and trucks run on top! Brick up underneat the bridge, paint a faux tunnel hole onto the brick wall! Use the technology from the CERN particle thing, create a black hole facing towards the one way street, anything passes through those. Dig through the road surface and the sewage pipe, now traffic has to pass through a pond of sewage, maybe not the best route after all now is it. Put up a huge billboard screen with a live feed from the camera recording all the 11foot8 clips so the trucks can watch themselfes crash. Then immediately show a "people reacts to" of their crash on youtube. A little elaborate maybe but I'm no engineer.

In fairness anywhere that stores pallets in bulk is basically a fire that hasn't happened yet, they're not only made of flammable material but are almost perfectly designed to get lots of air in once they start going.

This one looks and sounds absolutely terrifying but I assume by everyone's reactions that this is another humdrum day in the ol' steel mill.
