The new bridge will be 50 feet south and be realigned for safety. The wider bridge will allow pedestrians to cross more easily, which now can be dangerous - particularly when trucks are crossing. Like the new bridge at Sandy river, there will be enough room for people to fish from the bridge, and also like Sandy Rive...
