The Cabagan-Sta. Maria Bridge in Isabela, a 990-meter long bridge, collapsed shortly after its completion, leading to a debate over whether the cause was a design flaw or overloading from a dump truck carrying excessive weight. The bridge was designed by engineer Alberto Cañete, who disputes claims of a design flaw, attributing the collapse to an overloaded vehicle.
