Scapegoating Eileen Wilcock (announced as CCE designate in Dec 2007) lets way too many people off the hook. Unfortunately, short of a public inquiry overriding her legal settlement, we'll probably never know what she did or didn't do, and if she tried to do stuff how much support she received.
If this was a LUAS collapse John Lynch would have been calling for heads by now.
Most importantly - there is little significant difference between this bridge and a road viaduct given that everything from the concrete beams up behaved as designed - how many NRA/county council bridges over tidal bodies are built on such foundations? What is their inspection regime? Who's keeping track to make sure it's happening and recorded properly?
