Why does the interstate bridge have a secondary gate chain that drops down when the bridge is about to lift. Those gate chains are connected to the hydraulic door
@jordansean18 12 күн бұрын
@@garbagemanbear406 did you see the part where the truck overran the barricade? It's actually more like a Railroad crossing arm. That chain net is what would actually stop a runaway vehicle from diving into the river.

You can learn more about it on Wikipedia, article is just called Interstate Bridge
@garbagemanbear406 Ай бұрын
Traffic lights weren’t installed until at least 2005. Old photos of the bridge showed that it had black boxes that would activate “STOP” when drawbridge was active
@jordansean18 Ай бұрын
Those STOP signs are still there today (though about a year ago someone hit and destroyed one of the 4 main ones). I don't remember when the lights went on, but I wanna say late 90s (about the same time the Hawthorne bridge in Portland switched it's STOP signs out for lights)

Yeah the semi truck would have been okay to keep going. The drawbridge operator would probably see he was on the bridge and not lower the gates at the far end of the bridge until he was clear of the bridge. Like others stated though, he may have been trying to stop anyway, and it takes longer to stop a semi truck than it does to stop a car.

Howdy Sean, I was wondering if I could show your video for part of one I'm working on? (With credit / your permission) I'm putting together a video about the engineering behind the Interstate Bridge and the replacement that almost happened a decade ago. I actually hung out for an entire day in Vancouver hoping to film the lift, but no large ships came by. So I had to pack up without the shot. This video is, frankly, amazing. Anyway, if you're open to sharing -- that would be really cool. If not, it's all good. Cheers, Rob
