Show Notes

Hours before the pedestrian bridge collapsed at Florida International University on Thursday, the engineering firm responsible for the bridge held a meeting to discuss a crack on the structure. They concluded that there was no safety concern and the crack did not compromise the structural integrity of the bridge.
