Construction crane at Southwest 11th Ave swing bridge tips over.

A construction crane at the SW11th Ave swing bridge tipped over last night causing some damage. The crane has been working on the historical bridge's restoration.  Since the bridge is closed during construction, no traffic was impacted and nobody was hurt in the accident. 



The damage caused by the crane might add on extra time to the project...which might upset some residents in the area.  The bridge connects Riverside Park and Sailboat Bend and is quite the short-cut for residents.

I snagged this picture from the Sun-Sentinel.  How the heck did this happen?  The bridge is very narrow and not a lot of room to flip a crane!
