[Vision2020] A 1.6 million-pound megaload, huh?

[Tom Hansen]

Question, Mr. Dredge . . .

What evidence have you that ANY engineers have calculated the strength of the bridge?

Are we talking about the same "engineers" that overlooked a powerline that crosses Highway 12; tge sane powerline that was clipped by a megaload, knocking out power to Weippe for several hours.

Did the engineers miss this "Narrow Bridge" sign on ID-200 just west of Clark Fork?



Here's a video of us crossing said bridge that you can share with them, Mr. Dredge.  Keep in mind that we drove over this bridge in a Ford Fushion, a vehicle a WHOLE LOT narrower than the megaload.

Stay tuned, though.  This is merely the beginning of my presentation concerning the megaloads and ID-200.  We still have phitos and videos of two other bridges and several narrow (and in some cases . . . winding) passages to discuss.

I'm guessing that I have examined this route considerably more than your Mammoet "engineers".

Seeya on the flip-flop, Moscow, because . . .
