  • Happens to the Trail Is Al- Even If an Area Is Prone to a Certain Type of Disaster, Not Ways User Safety
    he Western Pennsylvania weather forecast was calling for thunderstorms for the afternoon of July 21, 2003, and a team from the engineering and con- tracting firm W. M. Brode Tcould feel the winds picking up in Kinzua Bridge State Park, in McKean County. Their column-by- column restoration of the historic Kinzua viaduct, stretching 2,053 feet across a tree-lined ravine, would have to continue the next day. The wind made their normally precarious work 300 feet above ground downright dangerous. The Pennsylvania Department of Conser- vation and Natural Resources (DCNR) had contracted with W. M. Brode in the early spring to do an emergency, multimillion-dol- lar repair on the railroad bridge. Built of iron in 1882 and rebuilt with steel in 1900 to ac- commodate heavier trains, Kinzua was once the highest railroad bridge in the world. In June 2002, after an inspection found consid- erable rust and deterioration in the bridge’s steel understructure, the department stopped tourist trains from taking visi- tors over Kinzua bridge. Several weeks later it halted pedestrian traffic too. On the afternoon of July 21, the predicted storm kicked up in eastern Ohio and traveled across Pennsylva- when d nia, producing impressive thunder- ba storms and high winds. In Kinzua Bridge State Park the storm was espe- cially powerful. According to the Na- p tional Weather Service, an F-1 tornado ha pen touched down and took a sure and things clear path through the visitor areas of the park and the gorge. The winds ripped off the tops of scores of trees to and downed hundreds of others.
