(Pittsburgh, Pa.) The Fern Hollow Bridge is set to reopen today less than one year after it collapsed into a Frick Park ravine
The bridge was rebuilt in what is considered rapid time, partially thanks to $25 million in federal funding.
A ceremonial ribbon-cutting will be held today with Governor Tom Wolf and Mayor Ed Gainey in attendance.
Ten people were injured in total when the bridge collapsed, with four of them taken to the hospital. Thankfully, no one was killed.
