Barge traffic jam on the Mississippi River piles up after a fractured bridge closed the waterway
quote:
A traffic jam on the lower Mississippi River swelled to 771 barges as a fractured bridge near Memphis closed the waterway that is crucial for U.S. crop exports.
quote:
At the spot where the river is closed, 26 vessels with 430 barges are waiting to pass north and 21 vessels with 341 barges are in the queue to go south.
quote:LINK
Tennessee officials hope to "have a decision for river traffic" in the next day or so, said Nichole Lawrence, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Transportation. She said a timeline has not been determined and the bridge is still under inspection.

If you want a Social Justice (sorry Infrastructure) Funding Bill passed you need a crisis.

Me too, but I doubled down and soaked all mine with gasoline because all of my buckets were already full.
Pro tip.

If they would just pass Biden’s “Infrastructure” bill, these things wouldn’t happen.

Huey Long must be rolling over in his grave knowing that commerce is getting through the old BR bridge in the first place.

This wouldn’t happen if we just switched to electric barges
