http://www.figgbridge.com/philosophy.html

"Bridges designed by FIGG are purposeful works of art, functional
sculptures within the landscape, that are created through a careful
analysis of the site, contextual and environmental sensitivity, and a
regional approach that encompasses a community's particular needs, as
well as the realities of funding and maintenance."

Maybe they should hire engineers rather than artistes. MCM, the company
doing the construction work is in Chapter 11. FIGG has been involved
with 230 bridges. Good luck.
