Experts warn funding gaps leave thousands of fragile spans unrepaired while more robust designs lag behind.

NTSB calls Washington bridge collapse a wake up call

The NTSB chair says the I 5 Skagit River bridge collapse is a wake up call for the nation. Investigators will review truck impact, maintenance docs, and prior incidents, using 3 D video to locate failure points while debris is cleared and a temporary reroute is prepared. Authorities plan a thorough, time consuming assessment to prevent future incidents.
