Video – Ore bridge detonated…

Crews demolish Ohio’s Mingo Junction bridge.

The Ohio Valley has one less bridge. Mingo Junction Steelworks, the new owner of the mill in the village, brought down the Ore Bridge and Trolley.

The demolition happened around 6 p.m. Crews used metal thermite charges that burned through the steel.

The demolition company, Frontier Industrial Corp. and the company AED were busy Thursday getting things ready on the bridge. While they were working there, local emergency crews were getting things ready on the ground, lining and clearing the streets.
