Somebody always has to spoil all the fun  The low bridge, internet famous for videos of trucks crashing into it is being raised. It will still be a somewhat low bridge however so some crashes may continue. Crashes. https://youtu.be/USu8vT_tfdw Raising prep starts. https://youtu.be/raptWPQbkMg Collecting dust. | ||

The city next to me has a truck-eating railroad bridge, but a fix appears unlikely as neither the railroad nor the city of Davenport will pay for it. https://www.facebook.com/Daven...dge-136161563119158/ | |||

Saw that video on their channel today. I can't remember, Which SF member was involved with the design / install of the beam in front of the bridge? | |||

Why raise the bridge? Seems like lowering the road would be easier You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

Forgot about this. I'd tried to post a thread about it but got thrown into moderated limbo due to a trigger word. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

I know better than to ask you to repeat it, but part of me is WAY curious what word related to a discussion about a bridge would be a trigger word. God bless America. | |||

No. Say it’s not so! With the deterioration of road conditions across the state of NC, I don’t understand. Why change this when there is ample warning of the conditions ahead. Drivers should be well aware by now. | |||

There are a bunch of utilities beneath the roadway. I think a main sewer or something. Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well. -Epictetus | |||

Genuinely no idea. It got flagged for review & never posted for view. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Many box trucks and semi sleepers are 12’2”. Raising this bridge to 12’4” will save a lot of property damage. Demand not that events should happen as you wish; but wish them to happen as they do happen, and you will go on well. -Epictetus | |||

I am surprised you can find a rental truck in the area with a roof on the box. And that protective beam is pretty impressive - simple and effective. Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||

Rain, if you lower the road then you now create a large low spot for water to collect. It may cost a lot more to install storm drains than to raise the bridge. _____________________ "We're going to die. Some people are scared of dying. Never be afraid to die.

Imagine what a "No Trucks over 1 ton" sign would have done for them. Hedley Lamarr: Wait, wait, wait. I'm unarmed. Bart: Alright, we'll settle this like men, with our fists. Hedley Lamarr: Sorry, I just remembered . . . I am armed. | |||

What does the bridge carry? If it were a railroad bridge, wouldn't raising it disturb the grade of the tracks? flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Don't Panic |
It's a RR bridge. More details here: News & Observer
