2nd truss crane fails, raising new doubts on bridge finish date By DAVID PATCH, Toledo Blade, OH
A telescoping leg fell off the I-280 Maumee River Crossing project’s surviving truss crane yesterday, throwing the $220 million bridge’s completion date into renewed uncertainty.
The incident occurred just hours after work on the bridge’s East Toledo approach spans resumed after being halted for more than eight months by the Feb. 16 collapse of the truss crane’s twin, which killed four workers and injured four others.
No one was hurt in yesterday’s accident.
However, state officials immediately demanded that the project contractor, Fru-Con Inc., of Ballwin, Mo., use different equipment to complete construction.------------------------------------------- posted 6:54 AM :: reference link ::
