Lots of these "timid" folks will soon be zipping across the new bridge and in a few more months will be fussing about how much traffic there is. Bridge Workers, Be Safe and Stay Well, Thank you for your work. Amazing to see the Progress, Thanks to all hands and minds that are putting this needed connector back into place and service.

I recently watched a show about bridge collapse and learned that even the smallest, seemingly insignificant defect in design, engineering or construction can result in a major collapse...and has. The smallest crack sometimes that might occur and go undetected can be catastrophic. I’m thinking I will wait a long time before using that bridge. I did drive across the completed part prior to the damage from the hurricane. It just seemed to me to be poorly constructed with rough patches of road and an angle (apparently for drainage) that felt uncomfortable to drive on. Nothing like the I10 bridge over Escambia Bay.

Hope the bridge is back strong soon. I feel for the residents & people who require using the bridge for work, mostly emergency traffic. Hope the bridge is back strong soon.
