Russian officials solve the mystery of dancing bridge

The country’s Audit Chamber has shed light on the nature of the “dancing” bridge in Central Russia. For example, the money spent on relocating residents to make way for the bridge is stated as being $50 million too high.The Audit Chamber believes that these kinds of financial irregularities led to the bridge not being built properly. It also claimed that technical documentation is “simply out of line”.“We are not specialists in engineering, but even we could see that the documentation does not stand up to any criticism,” Sergey Stepashin, head of the Audit Chamber, said. “Thank God that the bridge survived at all.”The waving bridge paralyzed traffic in the city of Volgograd in May 2010.  RT
