Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:00 a.m. on September 8, 1992, Employee #1 was working on a two-point suspended scaffold. While he was moving the scaffold between point A and point B along the main suspension cable of the Walt Whitman Bridge, the west end of the scaffold, which was being supported by 3/4 in. manila rope, collapsed. Employee #1 fell from the scaffold and was killed. He had a safety belt and lanyard on, but they were not attached. The rope supporting the scaffold failed due to its deteriorated condition and the excessive load on the scaffold.
