Personally I’ve seen:
actually a terrorist attack that’s being covered up, which includes lots of the bridge and ship version of “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams”
rebuilding it will actually not be expensive because (some insane shit nobody has ever done before). Elon Musk got in on this one!
Let me guess, they're going to make a tunnel instead. But instead of underground they're going to put it above ground, suspended over the water supported by pillars. 🧐
Oh, you bright and wonderful soul, untarnished by the knowledge of the depths of Musk’s stupidity, I envy you. I envy you and will destroy your blissful ignorance: he suggested reusing the collapsed truss steel.
You know, steel! The material that deals fantastically with being bent and twisted and doesn’t lose any strength at all from it! 😬
FFS that's dumb, that steel can't be reused without being reforged (or whatever the term is)
That broken bridge needs removed (hopefully recycled) and then a new one built in it's place
Hopefully it goes faster than the project to replace a bridge near me. It was built before WWI and it's still there, the talks have been going on for decades.
Sounds like a bridge near me.
There is a bridge near me that was rebuild so cars can cross like 30 years ago. They had plans to repaint it, because it looks weathered. They put on 3 different kinds of paint to see which one would look best. The 3 samples are already weathered and peeling by now.
and my axe i mean bridge.
And let me guess; hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent on multiple studies figuring out whether or not the bridge should be replaced?
Funnily enough no
Everyone knows it needs replaced
No one wants to agree on what should replace it though
Basically 2 different jurisdictions want to replace the bridge and then either one will propose a plan that inevitably gets shot down and then it's back to the drawing board
So the money is being wasted there not on whether it should be replaced or not
That just might be crazy enough to work, perhaps the tunnel can be made of scaffolding, so people can get some of that sweet sunlight while they go through it?
It only fits one tesla at the time
He can have it done in a month. Guaranteed.
