It is horrible. I was just reading about it. I had not heard about it until I got online.

I was just reading the local news. The governor of Utah has ordered all bridges in Utah to be inspected. The sad part about the bridge in Minnesota...even 2 years ago inspectors stated this bridge was structurally deficient.
Here is a quote from a CNN article:
Federal Highway Administration data from 2006 shows that 24.5 percent of the nation's bridges longer than 20 feet were categorized as "structurally deficient" or "functionally obsolete" (data from Utah and New Mexico was from 2005).

I'm too tired to go through all the articles. What did they say caused it? Did the bridge shift?
