| Category: Bridge Bracksy has made some astounding observations about our Westgate bridge. This is a bridge that: is exposed to the elements, that crosses a river, that crosses the bay as well and also has significant exposure to weatherThe bay? You'd reckon that Bracksy would know a little of the geography of the region given that he is the local member on one end of the bridge but he sure seems to be lacking something here. Also, "exposed to the elements" and "having significant exposure to weather" seems unnecessarily redundant. This all on the back of the leading paragraph: PREMIER Steve Bracks has defended the safety of Melbourne's West Gate Bridge after maintenance checks identified structural problems, including cracking, corrosion and buckling.What do you expect of a bridge that has had its toll removed? |
