[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this was China, the bridge would be rebuilt by now.

Perhaps I say this in jest (probably more like a week or two rather than a few days) but watching the rebuilding will say a lot about America's capabilities. But I do have confidence the bridge will be rebuilt much faster than many are thinking. [/quote]

When I-95 in Philadelphia collapsed everyone here was sure the incompetent government would take years to fix it.  It ended up being about 3 weeks.

Bridges are obviously projects that take years, not weeks, but so far it seems like all of the right people and organizations are dedicated to rebuilding this as efficiently and effectively as possible.

Sometimes it's OK to not assume the worst.[/quote]

I don’t have a lot of confidence watching this American legion bridge expansion.

How fast do you think this bridge can be built by?

Dh jokingly said 10 years. I’m thinking two years minimum.[/quote]

Obviously a simpler case, but after the I-35W bridge collapse in Minneapolis, they rebuilt the bridge in about a year.[/quote]
