@905wesa@MargaretKrauss Our team at Mach9 is working to help find the answer. Here's a laser scan we created from the observation area with one of the CUBEs that's going to monitor the nearly 450 bridges in Pittsburgh https://t.co/U23Ugv6Y3I
Today @MayorEdGainey & Councilman @CoreyOConnorPGH announced legislation to establish The Commission on Infrastructure Asset Reporting and Investment, which will advise on best practices for both short- and long-term investment of major City-maintained infrastructure assets.
We were stunned to hear about the collapse of Fern Hollow Bridge on Friday and look forward to being a part of the solution. Mach9 is launching the Pittsburgh Bridge Initiative to inspect the near 450 bridges in our backyard. Check out more here https://t.co/RsXAQ6MjLa
