NEW BEDFORD, MA - If you were pressed to define New Bedford's biggest problems in a single word, neglect would probably do the job. There is trash on the streets because both the citizens and the establishment neglect the rules of civility and good sense. Drugs are rampant because we neglect the causes of our dysfunctions. The city is full of slum buildings because the building and fire departments neglect to follow state laws and do proper enforcement. Our roads are full of filled potholes and are crisscrossed with constant infrastructure repairs because we neglect to fix our roads and public plumbing correctly... because the compliance people neglect to check. Our Mayor has to constantly defend many recurring problems because he neglects his power to fire poor performing public employees. Well, the train bridge that crosses Coggeshall Street at Purchase Street too is a victim of this neglect and it may very well take someone getting crushed when the steel finally gives out in the near future. Funny thing about this 1906 train bridge. Unless you get out of your car and stand under it, you will never see the rot that has taken over and literally melted holes through the formerly ½ thick steel. You will never see the bent and twisted cross beams until you stand on the sidewalk, crane your neck up and adjust to the dim light. This is a disaster that will happen if neglect continues. I don't know who is responsible, the city, the state or the rail company. Doesn't matter. It appears that all have neglected to care.
The engineers who designed and built this bridge in 1906 did a great job, but time, salt air and political negligence has taken it's toll. It's time to close this underpass and build a new and safer train bridge.
