State lawmakers are asking the Office of the Legislative Auditor to review highway and bridge spending issues in the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Three weeks after the 35W bridge collapse, a legislative panel meets with the auditor to request an update of a 1997 report. That report highlighted a growing number of structurally deficient bridges and a lack of preventative maintenance. It also warned of steel fatigue in some bridges. Legislative Auditor Jim Nobles says the 10-year-old report clearly showed the potential for a bridge collapse.
