How many days since the Montague Street Bridge has been hit? Zero, unfortunately. The infamous low-clearance bridge has claimed yet another victim, this time, a TAXIBOX van. With just three metres of clearance, the bridge has stood unyielding for more than a century, dispatching countless trucks, vans and buses... show more

Reporter: The President threatened to block the new Gordie Howe Bridge, which would connect Detroit to Canada. This is a bridge that was fully paid for by Canada. It used American labor to construct it. It used American steel to construct that bridge. The president in 2017 was actually in favor of this bridge. Why has the president changed his mind as it relates to this bridge? Leavitt: The fact that Canada will control what crosses the Gordie Howe Bridge and owns the land on both sides is unacceptable to the president. It's also unacceptable that more of this bridge isn't being built with more American made materials. The US should own half of the bridge.

Iranian media on Monday released footage showing preliminary work has begun to restore the B-1 bridge in Karaj, west of Tehran, nearly three months after it was hit in a US airstrike. President Donald Trump, who has described it as Iran’s “George Washington Bridge,” said at the time that “the biggest bridge in Iran” had come down and would “never” be used again. He told Axios last week that he ordered the strike because the Iranians "showed up late" at a meeting. US officials said the April 2 strike targeted a route allegedly used to move missile and drone components, while Iranian officials described the bridge as civilian infrastructure. Iranian authorities say the reconstruction will cost more than $23 million and take about a year.

This is all getting ridiculous now — 11 YEARS to build a simple bridge👇 You’ll have probably seen the bizarre concept art for the new pedestrian bridge between Steeton and Silsden. The deliberate over-complication of this project has frankly been stunning. ➡️ Let's remind ourselves it has now been 9 YEARS since £700,000 was given by our Conservative Government to local Labour-run authorities for a feasibility study. ➡️ It then took Labour 4 years to produce a report which concluded: ‘We need a bridge’. ➡️ Funds were then allocated for this project in 2021 by the previous Conservative government. ➡️ Yet local authorities have sat on their hands and allowed the cost of this project to spiral from £3 million to £13 million. And that’s just for the bridge itself, with the total cost of the scheme when you include plans for pedestrian and cycle paths and more road crossings totalling £24 million ➡️ They are now saying the bridge will not be completed until 2027 - 11 YEARS since money was first given!! 🤔 For reference, the Prince of Wales Bridge — the Second longest bridge in the UK — took just 6 and a half years to plan and build. It is high time for both Bradford Council and the West Yorkshire Mayor to stop dithering and delaying, and to crack on and get our much Silsden to Steeton bridge built. All we want is a simple bridge. It shouldn’t be this difficult.

I'm glad to see you take pride in the Dafaqu Grand Bridge, albeit I must point out that it is a bridge in China, not India. I also found the Chinese source video that you altered and slapped some bogus cations on. The recurring practice of some Indian netizens editing footage of Chinese bridges and then sharing them as Indian infrastructure on NH44 is misleading and dishonest. The 1,427-meter-long Dafaqu Grand Bridge, which crosses a deep valley in a mountainous area in the north of China’s Guizhou province, is a large-span concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge. It is a key project in a freeway that links the Guizhou cities of Renhuai and Zunyi. The main arch of the bridge — spanning 410 meters — has been painted red, providing a magnificent spectacle against the backdrop of the mountain and the valley, and drawing many tourists to view the surrounding scenery. The bridge sits more than 280 meters above the valley floor, equivalent to the height of a 100-story building. The complicated terrain, such as the steep cliffs, meant its construction posed challenges for engineers and building workers. Guizhou, the only province in China without a single plain and home to deep ravines, has long relied on tunnels and bridges to overcome its jagged karst landscape. Since 2012, the province has accelerated its bridge construction endeavors. Guizhou now has over 32,000 bridges either already built or under construction -- a tenfold increase compared to the 1980s. Due to its sheer number of bridges, diverse bridge types and complex construction technologies, Guizhou has earned the title of "the world's bridge museum."

In recent days, videos of the Huajiang Bridge (花江), the world's highest bridge, have gone viral on X. Many observers couldn't help but note the irony: the R&D cost of a single US fighter jet is nearly equal to that of this monumental bridge in China. Last year, during a business trip through Xiangxi, I came across another engineering marvel that deserves no less attention-the Aizhai Bridge (矮寨). Built for a little more than half the cost of an F-22, it remains the world's largest canyon-spanning suspension bridge. Like Huajiang, Aizhai sits deep within rugged mountains, where transportation was once nearly impossible. Its name, Aizhai (literally "Low Village"), comes from the view looking down from the cliffs above. The settlement seemed so small and sunken, as if fate itself had pressed it beneath the surrounding peaks. In the 1930s, during WWII, China's southwest became a strategic rear area, and a complex network of mountain roads was built here. In 2004, China planned a 3,000-kilometer expressway stretching from Baotou in Inner Mongolia to Maoming in Guangdong, a road literally running from the Gobi desert to the South China Sea. The route was set to pass through this deep canyon, and a major debate arose: should they build tunnels or a bridge? After much study, engineers concluded that although tunneling could save several hundred million yuan, it would cause far greater environmental damage due to the area's fragile karst geology. During field surveys, engineers hiked across mountains and valleys. On one occasion, they encountered a farmer weeping uncontrollably. When they asked what had happened, they learned that her cow had just fallen off a cliff. At that moment, they understood more deeply how dangerous and isolated this region truly was, and why building a bridge here was not just an engineering challenge, but a moral imperative. In 2011, after four years of construction, the Aizhai Bridge was officially completed. Its deck rises 355 meters above the town of Aizhai below. What once required a thirty-minute detour along winding mountain roads can now be crossed in just one minute. The transformation brought by better transportation is about more than just speed. Once a remote, impoverished mountain town cut off from the outside world, it has become a vital artery connecting China's north and south. Travel time from western Hunan to Changsha has been reduced by four hours, and to Chongqing by eight, rewriting not only distances, but the very radius of people's lives and possibilities. Aizhai is "low" no more. Suspended among the clouds, the bridge shortens distances, lifts lives, and reshapes futures. One fighter jet defends airspace. One bridge redefines possibility. Watch the one-minute video I filmed while crossing the bridge.

North east Lincolnshire council are having a meeting today to discuss putting signs up around a bridge saying 'RAPISTS OPERATE AROUND HERE' CCTV and lighting is considered disproportionately expensive options 😲 Complete removal of the bridge is also an option We have had TWO RAPES and one VIOLENT ATTACK in the last couple of years on this bridge and all the council want to do is put up signs warning people that the bridge is DANGEROUS Full video in the comments 👇🏻 A petition signed by over 200 residents last year called for action to improve public safety at Fuller Street Bridge, such as lighting, improved signage "to allow the public to make informed decisions" about crossing a bridge where sexual assaults have been reported has been recommended with lighting and CCTV considered disproportionately expensive options. A decision on possible extra safety measures at Fuller Street Bridge, Cleethorpes, is due to be taken at a meeting today, Monday (January 26) after council officers reported back on the options to increase safety It followed the reports of alleged rapes to Humberside Police in January 2024 and February 2025 Cllr Ron Shepherd (Conservative - Scartho Ward), has since held two meetings on the matter, in June and September 2025. At the last meeting, he tasked council officers to report back with costings on possible lighting and CCTV measures, and for greater detail on the bridge's structural integrity and data on reported crime in the area These have now been put together. Based on the data showing Fuller Street has "less crime than the immediate surrounding area" and the bridge "significantly less", a council report concludes it would be a disproportionate level of spend to invest in lighting and CCTV for the bridge, or lighting for the North Wall area Complete removal of the bridge is mentioned as a possible option, with its proximity to the lit Suggitt's Lane footbridge referenced. But the report states public opinion must be considered. Instead, new signage is recommended A review of reported crimes between September 2023 and October 2025 found 294 recorded crimes in the local area, including neighbouring streets like Neville Street. Three crimes have been recorded as taking place at the bridge, two sexual offences and one violence against the person Options include: Lighting and CCTV on the bridge: £7,000 for the lighting, £21,000 to install the CCTV and about £3,000 a year to maintain the CCTV. Standard lighting at North Wall, from Fuller Street Bridge to Wonderland, and from the bridge entrance to the port entrance: potentially up to £325,000, with around £2,500 annual costs, but installation costs could be reduced dependent on permission to install columns behind the sea wall. Solar lighting along the same North Wall section: £200,000 installation costs, with annual costs potentially much less, but dependent on lack of vandalism For bridge lighting, Network Rail permission would be needed. For the North Wall lighting options, it is also recommended that a 110 metre footway be created for safe access between the wall and bridge. This cost has not been estimated. The North Wall options require not just the green light from Network Rail, but also landowner's permission and the Environment Agency's sign-off too. Council officers have also looked further into the bridge's structural integrity "The minimal work required to make this site safe is to fix protective panels over the failed areas," the council report states But it recommends replacement of the parapet mesh to avoid possible future problems, and other works The cost of these is not detailed. But linked to this, the council would have to pay for a legal agreement and track possessions to be reached with Network Rail It is stated these costs are decided by Network Rail and can range from £5,000 to £250,000. "There’s no way to know what it will cost before it’s been created," the report says

$MSTR It’s been four years since Saylor stood on that stage at the Atlas Society and said: “Build the bridge, go stand out in the middle of the bridge, show people it’s not going to break. If it’s good for $100M, it’s good for a Billion … and if it’s good for a billion, we might as well go for 4 billion” Since then… they didn’t just stand on the bridge-they’ve kept building it. Tens of billions raised. Multiple cycles endured. The company is still standing. The bridge is as strong as ever. This morning, another $42B plan has been announced. At some point, you’ve got to wake up and see this isn’t an experiment anymore. This is execution. This is a man on a mission that’s turning his conviction into reality. Keep fading him… or go stand on the bridge yourself.. #BTC #STRC #MSTR

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “It was supposed to open Friday, it is not open because Trump says he does not want it open. When this bridge does open some day, if Trump ever lets it open, you should know that there is a competing bridge a little way down the river, a privately-owned very old very congested toll bridge that will likely LOSE some of its traffic…because of competition. It will lose some of its traffic to this pretty, brand new bridge that has just been built. The family that operates the competing old bridge, earlier this year, made a $1 million donation to Donald Trump’s super pac. In short order, a member of that family then got an in person meeting with Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. The White House and the pac say that was just a coincidence…but after the million dollar donation, he gets this meeting, and then the SAME day of the meeting, Howard Lutnick calls President Donald Trump and then Trump suddenly discovers new supposedly trade-related reasons why he’s now suddenly against this bridge, even though previously he has been for it.” 🤦‍♀️

The insane hypocrisy in Los Angeles is on full display. That taxpayer funded Sixth Street Bridge has been a disaster for years with constant street takeovers, fireworks shows lighting it up like the 4th of July, traffic nightmares, and all the while Karen Bass does nothing to stop it. But the second Mercedes wants to shoot a commercial… Boom, full shutdown for more than a week. Red carpet for Brad Pitt, Blink-182 playing a private gig for 600 of their closest friends, fireworks, race cars, the works. All while the people that paid for the bridge sit in traffic hell.

#WATCH | Tamil Nadu: Residents staged a road blockade protest at Sanjeevi Nagar on the Tiruchirappalli–Chennai National Highway demanding the speedy completion of maintenance work on the Cauvery Bridge. The old Cauvery Bridge has been closed for the past two days for repair works, resulting in severe traffic congestion and causing major inconvenience to commuters. Protesters said the prolonged closure has led to unbearable delays and urged the authorities to complete the maintenance work at the earliest. Traffic police officials reached the spot and held talks with the protesters in an attempt to pacify them and restore normal traffic. Residents also pointed out that their long-pending demand for the construction of a flyover at Sanjeevi Nagar has remained unresolved for several years. They recalled that the local Member of Parliament had earlier assured that the project would be taken up soon. However, with the closure of the old Cauvery Bridge, traffic congestion has worsened, prompting the public to launch the protest. The traffic jam has stretched for nearly three kilometres, affecting the entire route from Oyamari Road through the Cauvery Bridge, Mambazha Salai, Thiruvanaikaval, Kumbakonathan Salai and the Tiruchirappalli–Chennai National Highway. Vehicles remain stranded, with traffic coming to a complete standstill and commuters unable to move even an inch.

Another overpass hit in Langley, and the driver just keeps going. This bridge has been struck more than a dozen times since 2023, and nothing changes. Under the NDP, it keeps happening, damage, delays, zero deterrence, and now drivers are just walking away. Who is enforcing height checks? Where are the consequences? How many warnings before someone gets seriously hurt? Get serious about enforcement, real penalties, and stop this before the next strike turns into a tragedy.

Omo, Ikorodu people are seriously suffering o. A bridge from Ikorodu to the Island would reduce the journey to about 30 minutes max. The proposed bridge costs about $2.5 billion, though, and the President has been pushing for this bridge, as well as the VGC Bridge. I don't know why it still hasn't been done. The government can try building a cheaper version of the bridge. It doesn't have to include all these expensive features. The important thing is to help Ikorodu residents avoid the long daily commute. However, no matter the version they choose to build, they should retain the fishwave design sha 😅. We need more iconic bridges in Lagos because they eventually become landmarks, just like the Ikoyi Cable-Stayed Bridge. Honestly, Dr. Hamzat is goated. He came up with this design alongside Engr. Mide Adeyoye, just as he did with the Ikoyi Bridge. That's why I keep saying he must not sleep on his own portfolio. The world needs to know how brilliant and experienced he is in road and infrastructure development. A deputy governor aspiring to become governor cannot remain in a ceremonial position. You need to show yourself more. But then again, this bridge would make developers rush to Ikorodu. They have plenty of land there, and it would become another major real estate corridor. Rent prices would definitely rise over time. They should sha build a cheaper version if cost is the issue,but please keep the same design. It will slap. What do you guys think? 🤔 Babajide Sanwo-Olu Obafemi Hamzat Damilola Sonayon James Seyi Tinubu ENIOLA BADMUS I am Dayo Amusa Lagos Min of the Environment and Water Resources The Lagos State Govt LASEPA Oluwaseun Osiyemi Tokunbo Wahab Lagos State Ministry of Works and Infrastructure Funke Akindele 📷: Long commutes Ikorodu residents go through to get to the island which was proposed to be solved by the Lagos Fish Wave Bridge (4MB).

🚨🇮🇷🇧🇭 Bridge for bridge: hours after U.S. strikes dropped bridges in Iran, Iran reportedly targeted the only road out of Bahrain Two sources say Iran targeted the King Fahd Causeway overnight, with emergency crews reportedly heading to the bridge; no damage assessment yet, so treat it as unconfirmed. At the same time, Qatar took what one account called its heaviest bombardment of the entire war, with impacts across Doha from 3:30am, only the second time Qatar has been hit since the MOU. Stefano Ritondale reads the causeway report as "an eye for an eye." Washington dropped bridges around Bandar Abbas, so Tehran reached for the one bridge that keeps Bahrain connected: its single land artery, the same causeway Saudi forces crossed in 2011 to put down Bahrain's uprising. His read of the message underneath: touch Iranian energy infrastructure and the same mirror waits there. On the bigger fear, he put a number on it. A ground operation sits around 1 IN 10 for him right now. What he watches for: strikes shifting onto Iran's regular army, which he says just began in Khuzestan and Baluchistan after months aimed only at the IRGC, and bridge cutting around Bandar Abbas to isolate the port. Both are happening; the tempo, in his view, stays far too low to call anything imminent. If it ever comes, his bet is Qeshm Island, Marines first, and not without Emirati help. One more pattern worth sitting with: the strike list keeps growing, and the two countries still untouched are the two any landing would need. Artorias

Carney on the Gordie Howe Bridge "We need it because we're expanding, we're still expanding trade." "So look it's a good deal for Canada and what's really good is getting the bridge done on on on on time on budget and to and to build up together." But it wasn't done on budget and that was one of the sticking points Bloomberg "According to a senior government source, Canada will get 50 per cent of the bridge’s toll profits in the first 15 years, with the other 50 per cent going into that economic development fund announced on Friday. But who runs that fund has yet to be determined." Canada was supposed to get the revenue until the bridge was paid off... Carney getting shaken down on a bridge is getting a "good deal"? Would hate to see what his "even better deal" on CUSMA will look like The absolute BS that flies out of his mouth that the media just accepts and repeats...

The secluded little village of Wycoller nestles in a narrow valley 1½ miles to east of Trawden, Lancashire, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 It is well-known for its three ancient bridges which have stood over beck for hundreds, if not thousands of years. They have even outlived Wycoller Hall which stands ruined and desolate. But each of the bridges has its very own tale to tell. There are actually seven bridges in village but pack-horse, clapper and clam bridges are of historic interest because of their great ages. The famous pack-horse bridge is a two-arched structure spanning Wycoller beck. It is sometimes called Sally’s Bridge after one of Cunliffe family who lived in hall opposite the bridge in 18th Century. Historians have argued about its age, but none of them are certain, but it is thought to either date from 13th or 15th Century. Its construction is a bit of an oddity, in that the arches are not equal to each other and the structure’s base-stone boulders are not level, giving bridge a somewhat precarious appearance because of that – author John Bentley in his fascinating book ‘Portrait of Wycoller’, alludes to this. Coping stones along sides of bridge are significant in that some of them have faint cup-marks in them, indicating that they were brought down from a prehistoric site on moors above Wycoller and used in bridge’s construction. When walking over bridge ‘you need’ to take care owing to the smoothness of paving slabs which have endured hundreds of years of use. Clapper bridge, sometimes called Druids’ Bridge, Weavers’ Bridge or Hall Bridge, is just a short distance along beck. This is a primitive structure but of massive proportions consisting of three flat gritstone slabs resting on two stone piers, one being a round-shaped boulder, other a thinner pillar-shaped stone that looks quite fragile, but it is in fact very strong. It was originally a two-slab bridge sup-ported on one central pier. However, bridge has succumbed to floods over years and has had to be reconstructed a few times. Its three slabs are heavily worn by hundreds of years of use. There is a legend that says this bridge led to a grove where druids practiced their strange rituals; there is no sign of this mystical grove or amphitheatre today and handloom weavers of Wycoller have long since hung up their clogs. Clapper bridge is thought to date from 16th-17th Century, though a few historians ‘think’ it might date from before Norman conquest (Bentley, John, 1993). Third bridge, clam bridge, located ¼ of a mile along track that runs beside beck in Wycoller Dene. This ancient bridge is formed by one single gritstone slab which is some 12ft long. It rests at one end on bank, while on other side it is propped up on some large stones, but it is very secure even though it might look like it is about to fall into beck. At one time there was a wooden safety rail at one side and holes for this can still be seen. Clam bridge is ‘often’ said to date from Bronze or Iron Age and to have originally stoop up-right on moors to north east (as standing stone – menhir), but there again it probably only dates from 15th or 16th Century. Long slender slab is well-worn and great care should be taken when crossing it. In floods of 1989-90 clam bridge was brought crashing down. It has sometimes been mistaken for a tree trunk lying across beck and at a distance it does indeed look like that. Author John Dixon in his work ‘Historic Walks Around The Pendle Way’, came to conclusion that three Wycoller bridges were of ‘a mid-16th Century’ date. He adds that: “The majority of bridge building was undertaken after Dissolution of monasteries when a moderate number of masons became unemployed and were wandering countryside finding work on many of new bridges which were required as roads became busier and wooden bridges and fords became inadequate.” 🎥 : 'Pack Horse Bridge', in Lancashire 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 (🎥© Europe Attractions) #archaeohistories

🚨Bridge Theft in Bengaluru!🚨 Respected Siddaramaiah, DK Shivakumar, We, the proud citizens of Bengaluru, are fed up with the continuous collapse of bridges in Bihar, which are indirectly funded by states like Maharashtra and Karnataka through their generous contributions to the central government's tax collection. Meanwhile, we have completely neglected the fact that an entire bridge was stolen right here in Bengaluru! The stolen bridge was located on Chintalamadivala-Muthanaluru Road, just 5 km from Sarjapur Road. It spanned a 20-foot-wide Rajakaluve that connected Huskur Lake with Singena Agarhara Lake. The Rajakaluve was widened during the KC Valley Project, under the guidance of J Manjunath IAS and led by Capt.Santhosh. K.C.. About 15 days ago, there was a large excavation on the road. We all assumed they would remove the old 3-foot drain pipe and replace it with a proper concrete bridge. However, to our surprise, they removed the pipe, filled it with concrete and soil, and leveled it as if there had never been a bridge there at all! This Rajakaluve dates back to the Chola era, and while the Rajakaluve itself still exists, the connecting bridge has vanished! We are utterly baffled as to who could have executed this audacious robbery! We implore the government to look into this matter immediately. It's a serious theft that cannot be ignored!
