Just looked on Google Street View and noticed the bridge had the lanes separated by those concrete lane crach barriers. I bet they were not factored into the loadings when it was built.

Good job this section didn't also collapse
Terrible tragedy.
This shows before and after sliding pictures.
They'll never get anybody to live in them flats now.

I expect this is going to looked at hard (from the BBC):
?The motorway operator said work to shore up the bridge's foundation was being carried out at the time.?
Dodgy foundation and flash flood perhaps?

I looked at the photos on the various media sites and there seems to be remarkably little rebar in all that concrete and what I could see looked rather puny.
Can't wait to hear the outcome of the investigation. Mafia concrete and control of the workers ??.
Not just in Italy.
Indeed not. The whole EU is simply a very sophisticated system of corruption.
A protection racket, essentially.
The most recent of many Italian bridge failures.
