Emergency crews respond to the scene of a bridge collapse near Frick Park in Pittsburgh, Jan. 28, 2022. Fetterman said the entire span of the bridge"completely collapsed” into Frick Park and the walking trail below. He said the fact that the bridge fell into the walking trail helped rescue workers reach people who were on the bridge.This incident comes as President Joe Biden heads to Pittsburgh to tout his Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which is set to provide $1.63 billion to Pennsylvania in federal funding for bridges, the third highest figure for any state.
Pennsylvania has 3,353 bridges in poor condition, the second most after Iowa, according to federal data. But the Biden administration has repeatedly said it is up to local officials to determine which bridges receive how much money.ABC News' Sarah Kolinovsky contributed to this report.
