Hi All, Just an update.... Based on information I have been given the bridge construction status remains unclear.
The bridge is not currently open to the public. Emergency/ADF vehicles are using the bridge. If the bridge does open to the general public, the approach/departure angles of the temporary bridge will restrict access to suitable/specific vehicles only. Given this and the dynamic nature and limitations of the bridge at this time, we have left highway=destroyed unchanged this morning.
