Sad to report, drove by the bridge on I35 today and noticed it has been removed and replaced with a new bridge as part of the Turkey creek flood control project

Well, that is two of us in agreement, so I have edited the page accordingly.

Looks like a rigid frame bridge to me.

My fellow bridgehunters: I have just added this bridge, which the NBI considers to be a slab. To me, it looks more like a rigid frame concrete bridge.

What do you folks think. All we have is Streetview so far.
