Anyone taking I-10 between the Indio Supercharger and Quartzsite Supercharger needs to be aware that a bridge was washed out by the rains today... Story from Time.com - Part of Interstate 10 Collapses After Heavy Rains in California or KTLA5 - Bridge Collapses Amid Heavy Rains Near Coachella, Prompting Closure of 10 Freeway | KTLA Here is the link to the Google Map from the KTLA story... https://www.google.com/maps/place/33%C2%B041'54.9%22N+115%C2%B028'10.1%22W/@33.705726,-115.8659598,10z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0 Travel safe out there...
AED, I posted the same thing about 30 minutes ago; I did not see anything here when I posted (SORRY--did not mean to steal your thunder.) I posted a couple of work-arounds for those traveling between Arizona and California. Perhaps the moderators can merge these two stories.
Picture from another KTLA tweet (Chip Yost) Chip Yost on Twitter: This one is from the bottom of the bridge section.
And to think I drove over that just 10 days ago... I wonder how long I-10 will be closed -- the bridge that failed was on the eastbound portion, and westbound is also closed. The westbound bridge was compromised in the flash flood...
From LATimes Tuesday July 21: http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-el-nino-preview-20150721-story.html#page=1 It would be nice to see details.
