Construction of bridges are always impressive, i admire the workers , they risk their lives , what a tragedy in 07 !
its nice photograph.
When it is completed, I would be cautious crossing it. It has already collapsed once.
A monument should be erected at the bridge site to memorize all workers who lost their lives to build this bridge!
Did they ever find out what caused the bridge section to collapsed? I hope it had nothing to do with cutting corners. Because it's a wrong thing to do in infrastructure projects. Well, it's wrong to do to any projects.
