Jamestown Bridge

Hey!
I should have mentioned this earlier but today is the last day for the Old Jamestown Bridge....yes, the same one that used to freak you out with the steel grated decks.

Sometime between 10am and 2pm today (like the cable guy) RIDOT will be using explosives to drop the center span into the bay. They're planning to fish the rubble out of the bay, recycle the steel, and use the concrete to make some artificial reefs offshore.

Watch it here if you can't make it down to the bridge to see it yourself.

Also, Don't forget this Saturday is the Big River Cleanup, 8:30am at the Hopkins Hill Park n Ride (Exit 6A off 95).
