**Welcome to the Kerch Underwater Bridge Megathread part IIb**

​

To keep things tidy, we will limit discussion to this megathread. Most of the posts related to the new and improved bridge will be removed as duplicates for the time being. Relevant posts will be locked and linked here for discussion.

1 Pile of Aquatic Rubble > 227.92 Billion Rubles

  1. 227.92 Billion Rubles. Mods, I did the calculation for you guys, it accounts to 67 dollars and change.

  2. Has anyone seen or can share the expertise of any structural engineers or bridge experts? Super curious on what the engineer types are thinking.

  3. ONE day I decide to distract myself with some silly show and skip the depressing news, and this happens? Oh, come on!

  4. Just put two ramps at each end and people can just jump their cars across the river, Dukes of Hazard style.

  6. Hopefully whatever Russians foolishly moved to Crimea have now gotten the message: The first time was not a fluke. Ukraine is never going away.
