A bridge in Neamț, ready to collapse, due to exploitation in the Moldova River
The result of decades of activity of the gravel pits in the area made the support on which the main bridge was built from Tupilați, Neamț, over the river Moldova, disappear, taken by water or dumped, and the structure that supports the road got to stay in the air.
“Since there are no tonnage restrictions on the bridge, it is easy to understand that the structure is overloaded: the weight of the bridge and the users is unloaded on a smaller foundation area). Therefore, if there is no emergency intervention, it is only a matter of time until it collapses, ”writes Horațiu Buzatu on Facebook.
After recent clearing work, but especially after decades of wild and uncontrolled exploitation of gravel pits in the area, the bridge seems to be raised, some of the supporting pillars are simply in the air! And on the bridge, which is not short at all, on the contrary, there is traffic and, apparently, without real restrictions, especially since aggregates are still being extracted in the area.
The situation of this bridge in Neamț, over the Moldova River, from Tupilați, is best shown by recent photos.
The photos show what the situation is now. Probably the people from the County Council are waiting for Anghel Saligny, based on funding, to get them out of the impasse, but not even the spirit of the genius engineer will save them if something bad happens there. We are officially waiting for a point of view from the county institution regarding the situation, if there is a recent one, which can withstand the stage of a new project and if it has chances to do in the next years of Ionel Arsene’s term. Until then, let’s admire a bridge that still runs.
Until then, we limit ourselves to publishing the opinion of our reader, a man who seems to be not only involved, but also specialized: “In the area of the bridge it is necessary . led to a worsening of the bridge’s situation. To remedy the situation, a bottom line should be built at the level that the bottom of the riverbed should be and the prohibition of gravel mining 2 km downstream and 1 km upstream. Greed and irresponsibility can lead to tragedy, the bridge can collapse at any moment with heavy traffic. A committee of experts should propose measures immediately: limiting tonnage and more, “write the mesagerulneamt.ro.
