Second blast fails to fell remaining section of Allegheny Bridge.
An attempt to implode the remaining sections of the old turnpike bridge over the Allegheny River this morning left a part of the structure still standing.
Most of the old bridge was imploded back on July 13, but there were two remaining sections of the Allegheny River Bridge left standing.
Crews tried to bring down those sections at 10 a.m. today. Initial reports suggest that while one side came down as planned, the other side did not.
A raw video of the apparently failed implosion can be found here, while a more detailed and telling video can be viewed here.
