[quote user="ChuckHawkins"] In looking at a picture of the bridge, posted by doublestack, the planking is rather substantial and their is a protective pipe railing along the walkway side. I would think there is much more to come out of this investigation beside a simple "missing" timber that created an opening large enough for someone to fall through.Like most initial reports that seem to inevitably be woefully inaccurate, I await the followup.
