A few people asked the interstate-40 bridge collapse in Oklahoma across
the Arkansas river. 11 and possible as many as 20 people are believed
dead.
Although I-40 is a major cross-country interstate, the bridge collapse
had no apparent impact on cross-country telecommunications traffic. I'm
not aware of any fiber routes across that bridge.
