Bridge Deck Collapse Kills One in Belgium
One man died and 2 people were injured when a highway bridge under demolition collapsed near the town of La Louviere, southern Belgium on Thursday. Mayor Jacques Gobert told that one worker - who was on the steel bridge as it collapsed - had died, while two others were injured as the deck collapsed onto a barge anchored underneath to collect rubble from the bridge. The bridge - which was closed for traffic during the demolition works - was part of a two-bridge crossing on the E42 highway over the "Canal du Centre" canal and was being demolished with a view to being reconstructed next year. The other bridge had been renovated in recent years, a spokesperson for the Sofico Wallonie local government highways agency said. |

I liked the engine still running on the digger machine. It was the little digger that COULD!  |
