This is 15 miles from my place. VDOT is replacing the bridge here and the recent monsoons we've had the last three days sure caused some flooding problems. Construction company had the crane parked on a temporary bridge and the sudden flood washed out the bridge and took the crane, too. All that debris and bottleneck has caused the flooding upstream to be even worse. How much does a crane like that cost? LINK

VDOT brought in a big crane today and finally pulled that other crane out of the river. Now the authorities are trying to figure out who to blame and who is responsible. Glad I don't live downstream from the sewer line that got busted. Sure messed up some prime small mouth fishing water... LINK
