Yup, this bridge is closed! The bride is still there, but they are not allowing traffic across this bridge. Email me for pictures.

I think this bridge has recently been closed to traffic. My speculation is that the bridge is no longer there. Hopefully soon, I will get back to it to take some pictures.
