The Coverup: "NH bridges downgraded to POOR'

So now we are on the vaulted red list. From a fair to a poor grade. You know, why didn't the state give the Brattleboro Reformer a link to the report so everyone can read it. They could put the link in the article. A sign of terrible corruption is a lack of transparency...these guys got that disease bad.

"Has anyone asked why this bridge wasn't on the NH red list. This is how they apportion bridge funding to communities mostly. They were falsifying inspection.

So mike, why didn't it get on the red list. Because they would have no bases that any changes occurred. It would illuminate their systemic bridge inspections falsification game.  

Just like today, if they shutdown the bridge. I could ask the NHDOT what changes occurred on this new inspection compared to the last inspection. They-we wouldn't find any significant changes from the last inspection. The game would be up!!!"  
You can get the rate of increase with corrosion in this inspection report. I assume the last inspection was two or three years ago. The rating on this guy drastically declined from the last inspection. This guy is going to drastically decline to at least three grades past poor before the new bridge is operational. The certainty of capturing the true condition of the bridge I'd put at about 60%. There is massive corrosion on the bridge obscuring damage visibility and many critical areas don't allow for any inspections.  

Mr. Landry is deep in "normalization of deviance with these stone age bridges. This kind of damage is normal for age of these bridges. He is crazy?

It was probably my work that got this abysmal worsening downgrade to poor. Honestly the downgrade to poor is proof they are falsifying bridge inspection. The trend with corrosion rate has probably been stable for decades. But got them to go down more than on grade. If these bridges had a regular painting job cycle the corrosion would be minimal.

The name of the island is not "The Island". It's official name is Island Park. It was a ball park and Brattleboro they had ball room dancing and big bands there. Crowds listened to politicians of the day also.

The power of the Reformer and NHDOT to control their story is amazing. You don't  have a completing viewpoint to contradict NHDOT. Just from a single source and a totally complaint newspaper.

"Brattleboro Reformer: NH Bridges Downgraded to Poor"

(sorry, I forgot to include page 1. This whole article wasn't on their internet site. It is interesting. Why did Audette write this article? Why not a regular reporter?   





So are the rocker or rolling bearings functional. As with the stationary bearings. These are critical for bridge safety. One is blocked by the new footing and the other one is terribly bend.
