Sinkhole Swallows Bus in Downtown Pittsburgh

This is right outside my office building (though I'm not there, I work from home until January)

Interesting how the sinkhole looks perfectly square, like a trapdoor in the roadway opened up...

Probably right at the expansion joints in the concrete. 

I though we down here in Florida were the only ones to suffer sinkholes.  I honestly thought that western PA was a little more solid.

A huge broken pipe under the street washed away all of the support.

Nope, just crumbling infrastructure.

No one likes stinky lingering fumes, double flush all the way!

Could be triple or quadruple flushes, just depends on how many logs you lay. Flush each one to keep it clean and fresh.  

Another angle.

WOW, So who's job is it to monitor and make sure these pipes are getting replaced on time? Clearly someone failed in the GOV to maintain the infrastructure.  ?
