Bridge that Collapsed Six Hours After Opening was Built Without Geotech Investigation

The Reeve of the rural municipality (RM) of Clayton says the bridge that collapsed six hours after it opened was built without having geotechnical investigation done on the riverbed it stood on. A bridge building expert calls that approach “irregular.”

The Dyck Memorial Bridge, located in the RM of Clayton about 300 kilometres east of Saskatoon, collapsed Friday shortly after it was opened.
