Minneapolis (AP) — The federal investigators looking into last summer's Minneapolis bridge collapse are putting many of their reports online.
National Transportation Safety Board Chairman Mark Rosenker said the material includes investigative reports, photos and information submitted by the parties involved in the collapse. It's available on the agency's Web site, ntsb.gov/dockets.
Rosenker said investigators are on schedule to make a final report on the cause of the collapse before the end of the year.
