Looks like it’s getting close to being place over the Hwy.

I’m sure there will be a “big deal” when the bridge is finished. Even a “bigger deal” when it’s open for travel...

Rickg, you are the man. What a beautiful picture that is for me to observe. It is a Phenomenal Start. I can't wait to see the Bridge that goes over The Pike.

All those little tabs hanging from the top and the cross members all over the place should end up with something connected to them. The suspense is killing me. Can't wait to see the finished product. I knew the Powers That Be Would Do The Correct Thing. Thanks Again Rickg :bigbow::bigbow::bigbow::bigbow::bigbow:

Those things appear to be some kind of small lights to me...

Yep, no doubt LED spotlights. Assist night cart crossing, and should appear really nice at night from the roads...

Glad that -as of now- no tolls.

Looks great but where will it go once you crossover 44?

Here's a pretty good map from TheVillages.com

villagetinker 05-27-2019 12:07 PM

And I thought it was 'follow the kool aid signs'........

Bogie Shooter 05-27-2019 02:20 PM

No, that was Jonestown.

You drive over to the eye center

Velvet 05-27-2019 03:24 PM

Beatit 05-28-2019 05:54 AM

Good question. I am going to guess NOT TO A CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF COURSE.

villagetinker 05-28-2019 10:08 AM

2 bridges over 44, one near Buena Vista, and one near Morse, and one over the turnpike.

rcpds 05-28-2019 10:54 AM

I hope someone takes a video (& posts it) of the bridge being positioned over 44.

My wife is anxious to attend so when you find out date and time please post (or send me a PM). One of the neighbors said that when they put the road closed and detour signs it will be a clue and we also assume it will be done in the dead of night to avoid those that want to watch....wait, that would target my wife...lol
