Bridges: Part of infrastructure in need of attention
President Bush has promised help in the rebuilding of the bridge that collapsed in Minneapolis. It's my understanding that the bridge is part of the Interstate highway system, so it's possible that the area will be eligible for even more funding. It concerns me that much of our Interstate infrastructure is getting old and is probably in need of serious inspection and updating.
I found it sadly ironic that only a few days ago more than five million dollars in grants was awarded to projects in 25 different states to help make bridges safer. The bridge in Minneapolis/St. Paul was not on the list of recipients.
