Bridge tumbles faster than a high roller’s luck in Las Vegas.
Crews from Las Vegas Paving will spend Monday night demolishing the Warm Springs Bridge near Interstate 15. The bridge has stood since the presidency of John F. Kennedy.
Unlike most Las Vegas demolitions which are over in seconds, this demolition will be done over several hours. Hydraulic hammers, sheers, and pulverizers started knocking the bridge down around 10 p.m. Monday. They will stay at it until the bridge is gone for good.
A modern four-lane bridge will replace the old two-lane bridge. It could eventually expand to six lanes.
