It's about time.
:Rofl:Rofl:Rofl Figure getting started in a year was pretty quick for the Corps. Way they have to document everything and jump through so many hoops to get funding.
The Corps and the State argued over whose bridge the property was on, according to Reese Guide. I guess the State won the argument. I figured it was Corps responsibility all along considering the location of the bridge. Great news!
Good news to hear! Glad they are finally getting the ball rolling !
I drove by the bridge yesterday. There were two pickups parked there and two guys with hard hats standing on the bridge looking at the sky. I guess that's phase one. Probably just year or two now and it will be open.
Sounds about right!
I don't know why anyone would want that fixed. After 2 years of pulling a camper and boat in the back way, winding road, narrow road, and making getting to the park about 20min. longer I will miss all that. Devil Icon
I heard it was going to be a toll bridge unless you have a Mississippi drivers license [emoji16]

That means somebody is going to have to man it. WOW! :dono To my friends up North, you can circumvent that. I can't wait to see how they are going to pull that off!:RoflQuote:

Apparently there was no documentation of the COE "giving" the bridge to the state. That road is a "state aide" road just like the one at Gum's Crossing on Grenada but the Gum's Bridge was "given" the to county not long after the Grenada Lake Project was done back in the late 50s.Quote:
