The Stampton Bridge was very long and wide. After the blast it became the HQ of Moya and the FBI, as well as a major part of the quarantine. It was sealed with several reinforced doors and the bridgeway was barricaded with cargo tankers. The bridge was then protected on one side by riot police who stopped the people of Empire city crossing the bridge, and soldiers and machine gun nests on the other end. Underneath the bridge there was a series of pipes and structures that Reapers were planning to sabotage.
