7 Engineers Suspended After $2.3 Million Bridge Includes Bizarre 90-Degree Turn

Seven engineers were suspended in India after designing a $2.3 million bridge with a dangerous 90-degree turn that went viral on social media. The Rail Over Bridge in Bhopal was meant to ease traffic for 300,000 daily commuters but instead became a safety hazard due to bureaucratic conflicts between agencies. The design changed multiple times over seven years as the Public Works Department and Railways disagreed on land sharing, ultimately resulting in an unsafe sharp turn that neither agency approved as functional or safe.
