Module 1 presents the history of the bridge, a funny story about a scandal that led in part to the formation of the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), the serious challenges in maintaining historic assets, and the strong feelings from the public about replacing the bridge. It goes well beyond numbers and equations, impressing upon students the profound impact their decisions have on communities.
