Missing The Old Trailbridge


I was cycling across the Gandy Bridge this morning and gazed at the old Friendship Trailbridge, which was closed three years ago due to structural issues such as concrete pieces falling.

The old Trailbridge was an amazing resource, offering incredible access to the body of water that ties our region together.

I still cross the Bay on my bicycle, using the shoulder of the current Gandy Bridge. But the vast majority of users of the old Trailbridge don't bike the Gandy Bridge shoulders and I'm saddened this region's political leaders didn't see the value of restoring the Trailbridge.
