"Oops... bridge, sewer, water, gas, electric." |
Another reason we need government services... just couldn't pass up this one.
San Mateo Daily Journal/Heather Murtagh, 4/27/12. "Truck weighs heavy on bridge"
"Police and firefighters come to the aid of a dump truck filled with
river rocks that got stuck on a private bridge which collapsed
underneath it on the 2000 block of Ralston Avenue in Hillsborough
yesterday afternoon.
A sewer line, water pipe and Pacific Gas &
Electric pipe were all ruptured due to the collapse, said Hillsborough
police Chief Mark O’Connor. Two big-rig trucks were needed to pull the
truck off the bridge, O’Connor said. The driver was uninjured, he said.
The broken lines were capped. The call took three hours and 14 minutes
to clear."
