Raymondism Twincharged October 12, 2014 Author Share October 12, 2014 During nicoll highway collapse that time no BCA? To be fair, there are always uncertainties during construction phase I think the fallen bridge should be already in use i.e. certified as safe by relevant authorities. This is an unfortunate incident. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pedestrian bridge at the Perling-Pasir Gudang Highway near Taman Kobena collapsed today following a freak storm, injuring a lorry driver and damaging several vehicles. In the 4.30pm incident, Bernama reported that a lorry driver was injured, two cars and a motorcycle were damaged after the metal roofing of the bridge flew off. The metal roofing, together with its metal structures then collapsed onto the road, blocking traffic coming from both lanes of the highway. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
