Hopefully Coastal Bridge has contract to get this expedited just like Sunshine Bridge.

Will traffic be bad like this morning everyday until it’s repaired?

Wait until there's a wreck on the new bridge because of rubbernecking and then a wreck on the other side of the bridge because of rubbernecking the rubbernecking.

Then it'll be worse.

It's going to happen.

There was a wreck in the right lane on the bridge this morning too.

It was bad this morning huh?




I took the helicopter instead in anticipation of such. Talk about a great buy that turned out to be!

Perhaps this is the impetus that gets Leg off their asses and gets something going. Build the damn thing at 415 like they were supposed to.

We need a decent fuel tax before we can afford any major capital projects, unfortunately. Maybe the legislature will stop playing politics after the election in November.

All the technology we have today and that clown is checking plumbness with a 9” torpedo. I guess they do need another .25/gal tax increase.

That’s going to take a month to repair? That includes paint cure time I’m assuming.

I don’t mind the traffic. Any text, email, Facebook post, phone call, or TD post, I can do while driving.

We have a decent fuel tax in existence. It’s been in existence since the 80s. Tell me where that money has gone and I’ll tell you why another fuel tax won’t get you what you want.
