    A report in 2011 warned of "intense decay" of the Morandi Bridge bridge. In 2012, the leader of Genoa's business federation said that there was a risk of collapse within 10 years.https://nyti.ms/2BeVhXc

        We, in the US, probably have hundreds of bridges in similar disrepair. Infrastructure costs money, which nobody wants to pay for. It’s pitiful.

        Hundreds? Try TENS OF THOUSANDS. As in 54,259 of the nation's 612,677 bridges are rated "structurally deficient," while 226,837 have "identified repair needs," including 1 in 3 Interstate highway bridges. But the wealthy got tax cuts, woohoo!https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/over-54000-american-bridges-structurally-deficient-analysis-of-new-federal-data-shows-300589542.html …

        #GME | In 2016, Professor Antonio Brencich from the University of Genoa warned that the #PonteMorandi would need to be completely rebuilt as its structure had rapidly deteriorated. He joins us now after yesterday’s tragic events. http://euronews.com/live  pic.twitter.com/NGQ5UbFD2o

        Such tragedy never hits from the blue. Turns out many knew of the potential disaster. Sadly, economic considerations overruled. Utter tragedy! Lives lost.

        #Genoa tragedy. 39 innocent travellers lose their lives. All Road & #Bridge #Infrastructure globally need ongoing inspection, proper maintenance. How are Canada’s bridges? Recall that #Laval #Quebec overpass collapsed a few years ago, killing some. Who is overseeing? $$$$ #safety

        Smh there's always red flags or signs before a tragedy happens... Just that nobody cares to listen to it

        "And how much of Italy’s aging, often neglected infrastructure is also at risk of failure?" I expect more from @nytimes than smug, judgmental, and ethnocentric language and such imperious, puritanically tinged statements about another country's infrastructure!

        If @nytimes really gives a care it would be worded, "And how much of Americas aging, often neglected infrastructure is also at risk of failure?" Instead they come off high and mighty.

        How many bridges in the US are in the same state of disrepair? What ever happened to infrastructure week?

        And yet, over the last decade, they cut the kind of infrastructure work that would've fixed this by more than two-thirds. That's what austerity gets you. A few billion saved now in exchange for tens of billions in damages because you kicked the can down on the road.
