Although this was a trajedy, I don't agree with the idea of spending federal money on state projects.
Michael Bauers
It's more like a disaster than a project. Federal money has been used during various disasters.
The bridge is very important economically, it's almost impossible to state the economic impact of it's loss.
I am no civil engineer, but the cost does seem high. The state and the fed could have split the cost somehow, and bids should have been taken (with time being a factor, they need that bridge as soon as possible.)
