More than 61,000 bridges throughout the United
States are “structurally deficient” and in need of serious repair, a national
association of builders has warned, citing government statistics.New analysis
of 2014 bridge database information recently released by the US Department of
Transportation (US DOT) showed that there were 61,064 “compromised” bridges
handling 215 million crossings every day, mostly within the Interstate Highway
System. The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA)
made its analysis public on Wednesday and urged lawmakers to help extend
funding for the federal program for capital investments, due to expire May 31.

Is it a
coincidence that we get this news on the eve of the lunar eclipse that
activates the Uranus-Pluto square? Recall that transit Pluto in Capricorn is opposite
the US Sibly Sun. The following extract from Lynn Hayes’
article “Pluto in Capricorn and the
Eroding Infrastructure” is so apt in the present context.
One of the things
I believe we’ll be facing over the next few years as Pluto travels through
Capricorn is the erosion of the structures that support our human lives on the
planet. Bridges, tunnels, buildings – all are ruled by Capricorn and subject to
transformation while in Pluto’s domain. http://bit.ly/1xxKFVb
