Officials with the village of Palmetto Bay have expressed their disagreement with one of the companies involved in the FIU pedestrian bridge collapse being awarded the 87th Avenue bridge contract, however the Third District Court of Appeal ruled Wednesday that decisions related to the bridge project lie solely with the county.

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. - The construction company that was building a pedestrian bridge that collapsed and killed six people has won a contract extension for projects at Miami International Airport. The Miami Herald reports that Miami-Dade County commissioners on Tuesday unanimously approved the extension into 2020 for Magnum Construction Management. The vote extends MCMs 2011 agreement to run small construction projects at the airport. This is the first successful vote since the March 2018 collapse of the bridge it was building for Florida International University. MCM filed for bankruptcy earlier this year and is in the process of settling claims related to the bridge collapse.
