Did you here about this on March 30 2024?
Chances are you probably didn't here about this.
It didn't take the bridge to collapse, so it wasn't big news

The Oklahoma State Patrol said Saturday that it closed a highway south of Sallisaw after a barge struck a bridge over Arkansas River.

There were no reports of injuries on the highway or the barge, Stewart said.

It was not immediately known what caused the barge to hit the bridge.

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation later posted on X that the highway had reopened after engineers inspected the bridge.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
