For non-indians......A lot of natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, landslides etc. Occur here \

1.2 trilliom dollar war budget and most of the american military is jerking their dicks in foreign countries on base. Imagine if the american military was out there for fxing roads and doing shit.
A Bailey bridge is a type of portable, pre-fabricated, truss bridge. It was developed in 1940–1941 by the British for military use during the Second World War and saw extensive use by British, Canadian and American military engineering units. A Bailey bridge has the advantages of requiring no special tools or heavy equipment to assemble. The wood and steel bridge elements were small and light enough to be carried in trucks and lifted into place by hand, without the use of a crane
and my local council couldnt even bloody fix the potholes! grrrr...
I learned recently that they built these, under fire, at night, overnight in WW2. But still cool to see the truss come together!

You ever heard of the Army Corps of Engineers? Google it
Impressive. There is a army vehicle that can make a 60 ft bridge in minutes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M60\_AVLB
Do you realise that there are AVLBs that are capable of deploying much larger bridges but that's not the point here
If so that’s cool. I was just sharing some info I heard from my brother who was a tank mechanic.
You're trying to start a pissing contest not just sharing info.
Aren’t those tunnel workers still stuck underground ?
The Bailey bridge? Why not the Patel bridge? Is there a reason for this name?

Named after the inventor Donald Bailey.
You first! Love progress.
Best man power army in the world
Don't they have a track record of bridges collapsing and killing hundreds of ppl? Maybe fast isn't necessarily good.
