>> That too but you can only do that for so long as we saw in MPLS two summers ago.

Actually, you are wrong. (big surprise).

The bridge collapse you referred to was not due to a lack of maintenance at all, rather, it was due to a design flaw exacerbated by the extra weight (600,000 lbs) on the bridge due to the renovation work underway, according to the NTSB investigation of the collapse.

Yes, I know. And so did they. Why were they maintaining the bridge when they knew the design was flawed and could lead to failure?
