And let me guess; hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent on multiple studies figuring out whether or not the bridge should be replaced?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

Funnily enough no

Everyone knows it needs replaced

No one wants to agree on what should replace it though

Basically 2 different jurisdictions want to replace the bridge and then either one will propose a plan that inevitably gets shot down and then it's back to the drawing board

So the money is being wasted there not on whether it should be replaced or not
