Five men were injured Saturday afternoon after a bridge under construction on Bruce Road 86 collapsed. Workers were pouring the concrete deck of the span when everything suddenly gave way at about 12:30 p.m., said the OPP. Mitch Twolan, mayor of Huron-Kinloss and warden of Bruce County, arrived at the scene about an hour after the 18-Mile River bridge, located about five kilometres east of Amberley, fell about 25 feet into the ravine and river. "We're so lucky no one was killed," was Twolan's first comment in a phone interview Monday morning. As of Sunday afternoon, two of the injured were still in hospital, he said.
