Combat Engineers on the front lines, (under the U.S. Army Corps) built 33 bridges in 6 weeks in 1944 in Italy. They also did a great job with the restoration of north Beach Maryland from 1998-2021. This group gets the job done! They make it happen.

Use ferry boats like the old Southern Pacific Railroad San Francisco Bay ferry boats.
* Originally Western Pacific. The Las Plumas was a very nice craft. (my dad was the company's last purchasing clerk before it was sold to SP)
This bridge has 35 thousand cars going across each day.
Too many people drive for unnecessary reasons
Let's go for a ride and talk about it.
Use ferry boats instead of bridges.
For 35,000 cars a day? I'd like to see it.
Remove this!
Waiting on the preliminary report from the NTSB today. The weather is overcast with mist and sprinkles so it's not likely that your going to see any action on site. All 4.6 thousand peeps looking on here need to know that WE ARE IN A CRISIS EVERY DAY THAT THE CHANNEL IS CLOSED TO SHIPPING. There's only 1 channel! Those other states like Michigan and FL had bridge collapses BUT THEY WASN'T BLOCKING A MAJOR SHIPPING CHANNEL. And Baltimore didn't have anything going for itself before this crisis so its impactful far beyond what Gov. Moore knows and will admit. This cleanup been slow rolled right from the beginning and that vessel is not grounded or stuck in the mud like they been characterizing it. THE SHIP HAS BEEN HELD DOWN BY CABLES ON THE STERN TO KEEP IT FROM SWINGING AROUND FREELY WITH THE WIND AND TIDE AND CURRENT. And the Unified Command keeps mischaracterizing things like this is the most unprecedented and complicated 'mangled mess stuck below the mud line' as far down as the Abyssal Plain that only Jacques Cuossou can get to. These people on the Unified Command gotta be retired out cuz they can't be trusted to communicate the truth to a Commander who is depending on a fair assessment of what they got if they was ever sent into the field.
Same old repeated news.just get the work done.stop milking it.
They are. This whole thing's gonna take years, not months.
And why is it you think they should in danger more lives, and allow toxic substances to potentially go in the water?
Exactly. They are not working 24/7 on actually removing the bridge debri.
