    Safety company: Bridge had high safety grade

    The Netivei Yisrael engineering company which supervises bridge safety in Israel, published Tuesday a report stating that the bridge which collapsed when hit by a truck was a good bridge which had a grade of 95 in a recent report.

    The company has decided to raise the height of pedestrian bridges to 6 meters so that no truck will hit them before it hits other bridges.

    If the truck would have hit a traffic bridge it would not have collapsed due to the different weight and construction methods of these bridges
