Minnesota Bridge Collapse

From: Minnesota Department of Transportation

The State of Minnesota has posted on the Internet its government documents concerning the August 2007 collapse of the I-35W Mississippi River bridge in Minneapolis. They provide news and updates, inspection expenditures (2004-2007), recent inspection reports (including fatigue evaluation), an inventory of deficient trunk highway bridges in Minneapolis (released August 2007), and related material.
