One Dead, 5 Injured when Heavy Truck on Bridge Both Collapse on Car

One person has been killed and five others injured after a bridge collapsed over a busy road in Italy.

The bridge, in Lecco, fell when a heavy goods vehicle, weighing 108 tonnes, crossed over it around 3.20pm yesterday afternoon.

At least 4 cars were involved in the crash and one was completely crushed underneath the collapsed bridge.

Anas, the company which runs Italy’s main roads, has accused local authorities of not acting fast enough after it had asked for the bridge to be closed at about 2pm when its workers spotted problems.

It reportedly said Lecco province officials had demanded the information in writing and said they needed a formal inspection of the site.

But the bridge had collapsed before an inspector could get to it.

Lecco officials have denied Anas’s version of events.

A preliminary criminal investigation has now been opened.

Could have so easily been avoided. But bureaucracy and money comes first, again.
