seen one civilian here. we have seen firefighters and police men. we see us, the cnn crew and hat is it. that is really encouraging news because we did not have a lot of advanced warning. most people seem to be gone and that is very good news. one other thing i want to mention is so many communities here are peninsulas and islands where you have to cross bridges. people behind could be stuck for days after the hurricane comes through. we know a lot of communities folks have not heeded the warnings. back to chad myers. as you saw what gary tuchman is experiencing there, i imagine those are the conditions that will be seen in a lot of communities along the coast in the coming hours. gary is right there. every time one of these bands of thunderstorms comes by the wind will go from 30 all the way to 60. you are just right in it. and then it goes away again. the next one is not 60 but 80
the most critical thing, is to get to the victims, get to the remains of the people that are underneath that bridge. this is a tragedy that we do not want to reoccur anywhere in the united states. all right. joining me now is mark ash, a trance pro chief executive officer. his company does safety work nationally and florida and writes about u.s. infrastructure in his book saving america. what do you think went wrong here? as a florida resident, it s such a tragedy. we ve had two in the last month. the american people expect to be able to cross bridges. and it s just this absolute failure of government to be able to deliver projects that are safe. one of the key elements is the testing phase.
of wind if you re in the narrow path of where the hurricane force winds are going to be, but the storm surge and the inland flooding from all the rain as this storm stalls over texas is going to prevent emergency crews from getting to you if you are in a position where, you know, you re flooded in or they can t cross bridges and those sort of things. so, you re told to evacuate. i recommend you get out and you get out now and that way you can keep you and your family safe. we are watching those pictures of your flight. i m telling you, you guys have both the coolest and the rai craziest job. much appreciate it. be safe up there. meantime, we have the mayor of houston who is warning folks in that city, do not underestimate this storm. mr. mayor, sylvester turner joins me now on the phone. we ve been listening to this forecast, as i know you have. it s expected to hang around for days. what is your biggest concern right now?
infrastructure in shape. the republicans agreed to spend almost a third less on roads and bridges last year. now, engineers, you know, we have a big discussion about education in america. we need more doctors, we need more scientists, we need engineers. so maybe we can pay attention to these engineers. they say that we actually need $3.6t, trillion dollars, over the next seven years to fix failing roads and bridges, to make them safe again. you know, this is not a new problem. this has been around for a while. maybe the country needs to remember this incident. a bridge falling in 2007, in the state of minnesota, in the middle of the country. the i-35 bridge in minneapolis collapsed during rush hour and dropped into the river, and over a hundred cars were involved. we only lost 13 people. only 13 people died. and 145 were hurt. this disaster, you know what it should have been? it should have been a wake-up call to everybody in this
