In a statement that has us at the Clog rather terrified, a UC Berkeley structural engineer had some choice words to say about the Bay Bridge. Spoiler alert: he is not a fan.
Yesterday, Professor Abolhassan Astaneh said the Bay Bridge has not been safe since the eyebar repair that had to be performed over Labor Day weekend.
“You have to shut down this bridge immediately,” said Professor Astaneh.”There’s no doubt about it.”
Astaneh describes keeping the bridge open as a “criminally negligent” act. Shit son. So for once we’re actually glad we have no means of transportation with which we might cross the Bay Bridge on any regular basis.
The statement comes after the bridge’s emergency closure and repair, and a fatal big-rig accident earlier this week.
