As the incident occurred on the ground, where ATC ASSIST in preventing collisions, then I take umbrage at your post assuming that the collision occurred due to ATC "trying to squeeze too many slots in"
- especially as you qualify it with that you were not suggesting that that the AIRCRAFT were not in a rush.

And also that you think some sort of "bridge" should be built over 23R in order for 23L deps to taxi over?!! That statement beggars belief - how on earth are the inbound aircraft supposed to land over a B747 or indeed any other aircraft taxi-ing over the bridge over the arrival runway????

And - by the way - I believe this occurred during 23R single runway ops - so how was your mythical bridge taxiway going to help exactly?

Get a grip
