## Resource

Pittsburgh’s old Commercial Street Bridge just imploded in a dramatic, smoke-filled spectacle—officials call it a success. Now, the real challenge begins: clearing rubble fast to slide in the new bridge and reopen I-376 within 25 days. Concrete and rebar are being recycled—crushed for reuse or sent to scrap yards. Cleanup crews are prioritizing debris blocking tracks and new foundations, delaying major cleanup until after the new bridge is in place and traffic resumes. The goal?
