President Joe Biden on Friday touted the bipartisan infrastructure package that he signed into law in November, while also addressing the dramatic bridge collapse in Pittsburgh that occurred just hours before he arrived in the city.

Fern Hollow Bridge near Frick Park, the site of the collapse, had been rated in "poor condition" for the last 10 years, Biden said. Across the country, 45,000 bridges are in poor condition, a number Biden called "unacceptable."
