We’re not the type of news source that does fly-by coverage (or a helicopter flyover). Instead, we get to the root of the issues.

Since the collapse of the Fern Hollow Bridge, we've taken a deeper approach, putting this event in local context, scrutinizing bridge data, speaking to experts about conditions in our region and elevating the voices of residents. We’re working on more stories to provide answers to your pressing questions:

How can I know the status of a bridge near me?
Are inspections as rigorous as they should be?
How will bridge repairs on Fern Hollow and other poorly rated bridges be prioritized?

We can’t do this work without you. Support in-depth journalism for the Pittsburgh region with a gift today.
