Default Bridge over Rt. 44
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

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.
