Bridges are drowning?

Will 5 photos, please do not break.
On major bridge had no money nor the city nor the region. We decided to make a "temporary structure" - a pontoon bridge. Version with cheap, reliable and fast-resolvable army bridge reason local and regional authorities did not like.
We stopped on a variant of the floating bridge trestle (fixed) and a floating part which would be cleaned only during the spring flood, and 10 months of the year - worked properly.
The designers have paid nearly half a million rubles for the development of all the documents for construction. However, in the project for some reason, it has been used research data the water level in the river Cheptsa decade ago. In short, all the "right" did. The project is, the money for the construction of - 28 million rubles - found in two budgets, began to build. In just 4 months old facility was built and commissioned.





Most obviously it turned low. And, contrary to the requirements of the navigable rivers, blocked the movement of water transport. State inspection of small vessels, of course, was against it - but who would have asked them. Yes and no big deal to people pobyli Burlacu, if the transport problem solves bridge.
Better bridge went under water at this moment!



The regional governor Nikita Belykh ceremoniously cut the ribbon - and traffic on the bridge was officially opened. Exactly a month. And then the bridge was the heat a little: it lasted all last week.
Russian experts, with whom we spoke was clear: this is a mistake of the project and the construction of floating urgent need to dismantle. Otherwise, it can not escape trouble. But instead of acting governor, his deputies, the builders, the city administration - chose to make excuses.
And to call the situation a "normal".



By November 10, all the trestle of the pontoon bridge was under water



It turns out that our bridge "nominally" drowned by the weekend. And what a liberal governor and power? They remain one thing: all the forces trying to distance itself from the mistakes and continue to do a good face on a bad game.
The inhabitants of the whole district remained without ferry without a bridge. Here is a "good investment" 28, 5 million rubles happened in a small town.

That's all I wanted to say.
