LOL, any money on the bridge getting stuck open and not able to close!
It’s going to happen. No point in even opening it, the whole thing needs to be replaced.
How about you do that late at night? Like at 3am when there’s virtually no traffic to disrupt.
smh this deterioration of our infrastructure was allowed to happen….
So the new developers of the St. George Hotel can get across I presume.
As if that’s ever actually going to happen
It didn’t say anything about the bridge being open or swinging open
suggest you re read the article it does say opening/closing
why in the name of the almighty would you tempt fate by opening that pile of rusted cra* in mid week at near mid day. Hope you have a tug on standby to pull it shut and welders ready to weld it closed.
How dumb can these people get? They wouldn’t even test it a few months after they closed it from opening. Let’s hope the bridge doesn’t collapse.
