Question for engineers re: interstates
Posted on 8/13/16 at 2:43 pm

Won't workers have to test the interstates after the waters go down to make sure they are safe to travel?
How long will that take? I'm thinking the interstate will be out of service for a while, huh?

They just test them by driving down them. If nothing happens, all clear.
In Louisiana? 10-11 years.

How much federal money can we get to fix the roads "damaged" by the high water?

They perform routine visual inspections of bridges. This could be an issue if water came above the roadway. I'm in Vegas so I haven't seen BR in 4 days

This spring when water went over I-10 and Hwy 12 from the giant Sabine river flood it took roughly 24 hours to put I-10 back in service once the water receded. Hwy12 was like 72 hours because several bridges had went under. If a bridge goes under then the time frame is greatly expanded.

FEMA will grant Louisiana about $50 million for the interstate study. Some contractor will get rich off yet another government contract. The contractor will conduct some type of "study" by driving a test vehicle up and down the highway sometime by the end of the year and provide the results from said test.
In real life, you and all the other cars will determine if the interstates are safe to travel as you are driving across them as soon as the flood waters recede.

We can use it to pay "reparations".

When water recedes driving resumes. No inspection will be done.
