The I-35W Mississippi River Bridge collapse, a tragic event in American infrastructure history, occurred on August 1, 2007, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The bridge, a vital artery connecting the northern and southern parts of the city, failed during evening rush hour, sending vehicles and their occupants plummeting into the river below. Thirteen people lost their lives, with many more injured. The collapse brought attention to the state of aging infrastructure across the United States, prompting discussions on the importance of regular maintenance and investment in updating bridges and roads. Investigations revealed design flaws and structural deficiencies in the bridge, highlighting the need for stringent inspection protocols and infrastructure renewal efforts nationwide. The disaster spurred significant changes in infrastructure policy and funding, emphasizing the imperative of ensuring public safety and the resilience of critical transportation networks.
