The bridge over the turnpike is already open.

That one struck me as if he were responding to a post 5 years ago. The land is developed and the bridge is open. Time warp.

OP was referring to the second bridge crossing the turnpike. SOUTHERN OAKS BRIDGE.

They're talking about the second bridge over the turnpike which will be further south by the under construction Sawgrass Grove and Southern Oaks 18-hole golf course. Original plan was for that bridge to also accommodate automobiles.

Still a plan for carts and cars to cross the Southern Oaks Bridge over the turnpike.

441/27

[wamley]

it is very steep.

Ebikes cross the bridge at a higher speed than carts.

Human power with a bit of electric boost exceeds an inefficient friction belt drive of the carts. The torque of a gasoline engine just isn't that great under load.

The human body is amazing!

Tonight at 7.47 PM we were headed back to our home in The Hysterical Section of The Villages. 7.47 is when we arrived at the peak of the Golf Cart Bridge and noticed about 20 Carts were stopped dead in the downward lane. It appeared that there was a collision at the base of the bridge. In a few minutes, the traffic started moving and to our surprise, the hold-up was a Ford F-150 with a trailer that was towing a jet ski. I swear to you that it is exactly as I stated. An F-150 with the extra-wide tires on it. Unbelievable.

Two nights ago when you are on Boone looking at the Orange Blossom Country Club ready to make a right turn which is the only way the legal flow of traffic will allow you to go we observed a beautiful and very expensive Gold Color BMW coming at us at over 60 miles an hour. I just froze and hoped for the best. Well, the pinheaded man driving the rocket passed Boone and went all the way around the Country Club, and exited onto Boone on his next lap.

What the Hell is going on? Have we come out of hibernation too early? The rule of thumb for newcomers is always be ready for the unexpected to happen while on the road anywhere in The Villages.

It really took an effort for each one of these two drivers to do what they did. I take it as a lesson to stay awake and aware when you are behind the wheel. If you're beefing with your loved one delay the battle till you get from behind the wheel. Concentrate and beware of your surroundings.

It was a dark color truck pulling a Dark Blue Jet Ski. I wonder if he knows there are Aggaltors in our ponds????
