The Herald's new database isn't is useful as their previous products, since all the information is already available online -- just in a clumsy format. (The salary data were not, however, available online until the Herald posted it.) That's why I could cull out those bridges closest to Brighton in a previous post.
The Herald is asking for citizens to contact them with information on bridges that people are worried about. Better yet, they are asking for photographs and/or video documenting the concerns.
Worried about the Eliot Bridge, which has a steel truss design similar to Minneapolis's 35W bridge that collapsed? Enjoy peering down through the cracks in the concrete of the BU Bridge to see the boats below? Here's a picture of those holes in the BU Bridge taken from below. I was on a boat taking a guided tour of the Charles during the Riverfest event of the Brighton-Allston Bicentennial.
