Watching the progress as they build from both sides towards the middle has been fun, however none of it gets us anywhere until the big one across the turnpike is built. Rumor on that one is that the steel for it will be delivered to the site very soon. But while we are on the rumor subject, a year ago the target date for full connectivity was January of 2020. Latest rumor (I stress rumor) is that it's now slid to Spring of 2020.
The jokes and comments will continue to come, but it doesn't appear that it will be a bad ride at all from the Fenney area to Brownwood once it all gets done. I live in Fenney South and it takes me 11 minutes by cart from my garage to as far as you can currently go on the trail just short of the bridge site. I'm guessing 10 minutes or less from that point to Brownwood.
