Saw on FB that the bridge near Orla on 285 collapsed yesterday. Anybody else see this?

They were in the process of demoing it. Bridge gave out a little early. One person took to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Not that i could tell. I saw it on FB but didnt see any reports to go along with it. I was curious to see if there was any truth behind it

Guess you've never been on 97 between Jourdanton and Fowlerton.

LOL some crappy ones down there too but 285 is one I go the long way around to avoid just for safety

I’m so glad I no longer have to deal with those roads. I hope those that do are careful and safe. It is very dangerous. Most in that line of work have dangerous jobs already. The roads to those jobs are deadly.
