(USGovernment-News.Com, June 21, 2013 ) Mesa, AZ – On Wednesday morning a bridge under construction collapsed on four construction workers; while two were able to get out of the way, one was critically injured, and the other was killed.
The bridge is located near Hawes Road and the Loop 202 where a new Arizona Route 24 Gateway Freeways is being built to connect Ellsworth Road with Loop 202. This is the first project the construction company has performed in Arizona, while details of the accident are still under investigation.
Unfortunately, in Arizona construction site accidents occur more often than one would expect. These accidents are typically associated with defective or dangerous products, along with a degree of operator negligence or error. Of course, in this extreme case, investigators are continuing to probe and find the actual cause of this bridge collapsing.
