Just as a addendum to this thread I wanted to add:
Large barge crashes into historic Fort Madision Bridge in Iowa, later sinks
This happened on May10th, 2024
Pelican Island Bridge in Galveston struck by barge, causing portion to collapse: officials
This happened earlier today
With the recent hoopla in Europe alleging air-traffic GPS being deliberately "jammed" I was wondering if this uptick in river navigation could be the result of similar cyberactivity. Probably not considered in media reporting... but we are not limited as they are in considering other possibilities...
There may be many reasons why this isn't the case, I'm uncertain how much 'autonomy' these barges and transport systems have in navigation, a coincidence?
We'll see, I suppose.
