Washington Bridge Closure: Impact, Alternatives, and Solutions

Colleen Palombo, a Rhode Island woman, speaks out about her car being damaged by concrete from the Washington Bridge in June, expressing concern that it was a warning sign after the bridge was abruptly closed this week due to safety concerns. Palombo had filed a claim with the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) but never heard back from them. She finds it hard to believe that the bridge was deemed safe one month after it damaged her car and emphasizes the need for ensuring the safety of the bridge.
