THIS is how you do a thread with news instead of something that offers no information:
"Heavy material, unstable ground caused SW Detroit road to buckle, city says
Detroit News|2 days ago
The weight of materials stored in the area and the ground not being strong enough to hold it led to the rapid swell, Detroit's Chief Operating Officer Hakim Berry said in a statement on Monday."

That was speculated on in the original thread which seems to have disappeared for some reason.

A very close friend of mine lived for a few years right on the southern side of the Ashland bridge "hump". Regularly a car or two would come screaming around the corner from Jefferson and... surprise!... then land with a loud metallic thud right in front of his house. Once the driver landed a little off kilter and clipped and cracked his porch steps.The same thing happened on Ashland street years ago.

By code you have to test soil compaction limits before building to make sure the soil can support the weight of the structure.THIS is how you do a thread with news instead of something that offers no information:

Here somebody thought it was a good idea to pile tons of whatever next to a road that contained infrastructure at will.
There are detractors on this thread redirecting the the attention from this buckling in the street to some small incline on Ashland Street. Let's not take the attention away from city neglects
