The 4,800-foot bridge normally carries about 90,000 vehicles a day on I-495, which diverts traffic around the city of Wilmington and toward the Port of Wilmington. The route parallels Interstate 95, which runs through downtown Wilmington.
"We understand that there will be a significant impact to the traveling public," said state Transportation Secretary Shailen Bhatt.

oh for god's sake. yes, you're very clever. here's your gold star. now be a good boy and go sit down.
A "Good Eye" award goes to the worker who caught this! 2.4 degrees is a LOT, and just the beginning of what could have been a MAJOR disaster!
Thank you, whoever you are. You just saved a LOT of lives, and money as well!

If 2.4 degrees is a LOT, it should not be that difficult to spot would it?
I'm just glad you didn't call him a hero.

What are you even talking about? Do you even know? You call him ignorant but yet you do not disclose even a trivial amount of information for us to glean what you are trying to say.
unbelievable.
I would hate to deal with that traffic mess.
You are all missing the point that there are regular inspections of everything on this bridge. WHO is responsible for the last inspections. This could not have "JUST" happened.. had to happen over a period of time. How many inspectors should lose their jobs??
