All the forms are still at the factory. Just had to pour and cure new pieces. The contractor is at fault here. They should have been held accountable to keep the new bridge AND repair work going at the same time. They just want to avoid the manpower cost. The FDOT should be embarrassed to be scammed like this. I would have had my foot planted where the sun don't shine. BTW about that review of the now new and revised hurricane plan, and verification of funds for EXECUTION!! This should have been a no brainer. All the forms are still at the factory.

The bridge doesn't exist to me. I've had to relocate to a new job because of the bridge being down. I just couldn't afford to drive from Pcola to GB every day. Honestly at this point.

I believe most of those involved are doing the best they can. Let's add to this list each day. I still believe in the May 31st date for reopening. Us neighbors appreciate the work being done.

I am basing this on past FDOT Pensacola road projects, especially Nine Mile Road.

Also, hurricane season does not start until after May 31 so weather should not be an issue. I do not think they will meet the deadline. I have heard that since the barge fiasco that it would take a year to restore the bridge to its original condition. I wish people would be honest about the bridge deadlines. Don't they have any integrity??? Can the bridge open with 4 lanes when the new exchange on the Pensacola side will not be completed until July (at the earliest they say)?

I guess it will be five years or longer to finish both of them,depending on the upcoming hurricane season. Looks like haven”t even started on the other bridge.
