Unknown people have spray-painted the collapsed section of Dresden's Carola Bridge. The words "Tax millionaires" were painted in large letters and white paint on the part of the bridge that was hanging down towards Neustädter Ufer. The Dresden police department was not surprised that people were entering the bridge despite it being cordoned off. The construction site is cordoned off by construction fences.
A section of the bridge collapsed on the night of September 11. Specifically, this affected bridge section C, on which a cycle path and footpath ran across the Elbe alongside streetcar tracks. There are car lanes on the other two strands. No people were injured. The entire bridge has been closed since the collapse. The investigation into the cause is ongoing. Corroded tendons have already been identified as the weak point. Demolition work on the collapsed section is expected to continue until the end of the year.
