The pictures are reminiscent of the devastating collapse of a motorway bridge in Genoa in 2018: the bridge of a state road in Italy collapsed. The misfortune apparently turned out lightly.
Rome (dpa) - In Italy, a bridge of a state road between Liguria and Tuscany has collapsed. According to initial information, there were only minor injuries, the Ministry of Transport in Rome said.
The road crosses a river between La Spezia and Massa Carrara. Two small vans were on the bridge when it collapsed, the fire department said. The drivers were saved. Pictures and videos showed how the bridge lies on the ground.
In August 2018, a highway bridge collapsed in Genoa, 43 people were killed. Since then, the often dilapidated infrastructure in Italy has been discussed.
