Yekaterinburg Bridge Collapse - Casualties

Casualties

There were no casualties in the Yekaterinburg highway bridge collapse, but the incident halted west- and east-bound railroad traffic through the city, the information department of Russia's Emergencies Ministry told Itar-Tass.

Chernetsky said the bridge was supposed to become operational in November. He said the bridge would be built anyway because “this is an important element of transport infrastructure.”
