Is it just me, or is that the ugliest and worst re-construction of a bridge that I've ever seen? It's more like a giant speed bump than a bridge. After all the time it took to re-build it, that's what they came up with? Utterly horrifying. I can't wait to see what happens when it snows. |

Jasper, it is a temporary bridge. There were construction problems that have caused the engineers to have to redesign the actual replacement bridge. Personally, I am going to avoid the temporary bridge when it snows.  |

Dearest Jasper, Bobbestk, once again, is wrong. This is the permanent bridge as completed by Sbenois Bridge Building Associates in conjunction with Dr. Stefano Design Works. I think it looks beautiful. My only regret is that we didn't go with the Goodly Doctor's idea for a fishing pier on the side with the gas station. I happen to know that there are some very hardly trout right over there and it would have been a real bonanza for the community had we taken the time to do it right.

Dearest Sbenois, Why did you bilk Union County by only constructing a two-lane bridge instead of the contracted four-lane bridge? |

And more to the point.. WHY DIDNT YOU MAKE THE FLY-FISHING PLATFORM THAT WAS IN THE ORIGINAL DESIGN. I hereby revoke my financial support of the goodly Dr. and Sbenois Bridge Building Associates. Remit to me the balance of the gift. sheesh a nice #16 cocky knight on WF line is a killer for these jersey farm trout

FYI: The original bridge (which was replaced at least twice before the current monstrosity) looked like this:
Why couldn't we go THIS route again? As you'll agree, it looks nice in the snow. --Soda |
