The bridge had been constructed by a shooting syndicate around 7 years earlier and was designed without engineering input. As a result, the bridge was inadequately designed and built and did not benefit from appropriate maintenance. The bridge had never been safe for vehicular use. The inadequate design, construction and maintenance of the bridge resulted in its collapse and caused Mr HARWOOD's death.
