Barge Tumbles Down Part of Longest Span
NEW ORLEANS 4 A barge slammed into the 23.8 mile Lake Pontchartrain causeway early today spilling a 56 foot section and likely another 56 foot segment to be replaced. No injuries were reported as the towboat McHenry crew member admitted sleep at the wheel. Repair costs are hard to estimate. The incident closed the south two lane bridge for at least a week, recalling a 1964 Greyhound bus tragedy on the same span.
