DPW Phil, job well done and timely……

Back On March 30th I posted the Over Under Poll For Completion Of The Good Harbor Beach Footbridge Poll-Here Were The Results

 

On March 30th I pegged the over under in the podcast we taped that day with Paul Morrison and Paulie Walnuts as the Third Saturday In May and I took the under based on the City wanting to have it open in time for Memorial Day Weekend-

Foot Bridge Repair – Day Five

Amazing how much was accomplished in just Five days.  There is still more work to be done, such as replace the iron railings in the center structure, and secure some more of the under carriage. 

My thanks to the DPW work crew that put up with me for the past week, taking photos and just getting in their way.
