Bridge in Shanghai Made From Trash Collapsed



The residents of Shanghai got the surprising when they know that an important new bridge collapsed, the components consist of rubbish and not concrete!

The Suzhou River Road where the bridge is located has been completed in 2009. This bridge replaces the older one with a more trend design. After the bridge available only a short period, it began to collapse; just after Christmas. When the fractures emerged, someone thought that maybe the ground might have become unstable or corruption of construction company.

Surprisingly, the construction had made from styrofoam, bags of garbage, scrap wood and plastic waste.

In my opinion, recycling is a good way to reduce the environmental pollution, but this is so ridiculous. It is too dangerous for people who use this bridge.
