Lacy, Yes using barges is still the only way to transport equipment and large quanitity materals to the north end of the island.

I would hate to see someone have an accident out there via the reer!

Yikes, those reer accidents can be brutal...hehe

So, any pics of the new bridge?

ScubaLady,
Please take some pictures of the bridge progress & post them.
Thanks!

Loansum:
Lonesome: not for long, the bridge will solve that.
What would be worse, a barge going down in reef, or some traffic on bridge.

I think the orginal plans called for a bascule bridge. There are many varieties of bascule bridges. Tower Bridge in London being one. This picture is probably more in line with AC requirements. It will definetly be interesting to see what it is in reality.

What! You mean jesse's picture isn't the new bridge? Oh crap how am I going to get all my stuff I'm bringing down over the pull ferry? I thought with the new bridge in place it would be able to handle the load. Oh well I guess I'll have to barge it up past the reer! (3 more sleeps )

YikeS!The new bridge and still the question of the reer!!

Just wanted to bring this topic back to the top again, along with the Corona Freeway
Have fun

Don't you have last minute Christmas shopping to do! By the way, I heard the bridge construction is on hold until they bill the north end property owners $35usd each for loan interest repayment to Mr. Bowen. The realtor that handled your transaction is responsible for billing you. Just the word on the street.
