Similar thing happened outside Columbus recently. 70 east bridge burned up from a tanker fire. Within a week they split traffic on the 70 west bridge. It was not ideal, but they made it work.

Well now they have to replace both north and southbound sections of the bridge so this will be a clusterfrick of epic proportions. I thank God that I don't have to venture ITP very often.

To clarify, the northbound lanes collapsed, and the adjacent southbound lanes need to be removed and replaced.

I would be breaking out in hives if I lived in Alpharetta or Gwinnett and had anything to do towards civilization.

Side note: sweetwater must be pissed! I don't know of any other way in or out than under that bridge.

And I thought my excitement last night was watching cops run down a guy while I was sitting at hook line and schooner about 20 feet from me. Then the waitress told me about 85.
