That’s an overpass on I10 in El Paso. Been that way for awhile. Looks like a vehicle hit it and the material just exploded everywhere.

The decorative stuff isn’t structural, right?

Doesn’t seem to be. Looks like Austin stone, but I think it’s just molded to look that way. Something along the lines of plaster. El Paso would probably like to have their money back on the damages, but I’m guessing the guilty party is no longer able to square things up.

Overloaded dope trucks coming from Mexico. I’ll stop and take a sample of the residue to confirm this theory.

I took that pic weeks after I first noticed it. That freaking wasteland hasn’t been disturbed by a drop of rain the entire time. It’s climate is one step above the moon.

They forget to mix the mortar WITH water? One trip through that town tells you that this is certainly possible.

With that rig up on the overpass, TX DOT and city are not concerned or overpass road would be closed (in most cities). Just too much tax money spent on looks and crappy low bid labor.

El Paso would probably like to have their money back on the damages, but I’m guessing the guilty party is no longer able to square things up. The family is probably suing Tesla. That is just a veneer with nothing to do with the structural strength.

That is the view headed west. Probably gee you sick’s mom deciding the column was better then another hot pocket/mountain dew run. If it was east, I would of said Californians broke out in a song & dance when they finally made it to Texas

How it happened? The stone veneer came off. Clearly, that is WHAT happened. I’m curious HOW.
