When you order a bridge on Temu
Luckily, no casualties. They'd already closed the bridge.

BEIJING, Nov 11 (Reuters) - Part of a recently opened bridge collapsed in China's southwestern province of Sichuan along a national highway linking the country's heartland with Tibet on Tuesday, local authorities said, but there were no reports of casualties.
Police in the city of Maerkang had closed the 758-metre-long Hongqi bridge to all traffic on Monday afternoon, after cracks appeared on nearby slopes and roads, and shifts were seen in the terrain of a mountain, the local government said.

I wonder how many people will disappear because of this failure.

There's a "Made in China" joke in there somewhere...

apparently it was a massive landslide that caused it; the bridge didnt just suddenly collapse; you can see from that video alot more is going on than just a section of the bridge falling.

uh, iirc from my Civil Engineering days, the foundation is a fairly important part of the project, been a long time though

China: We build now and deal with the fallout later. Data be damned!
