    The latest bulletin said that the Colon - Hypermart bridge would be finished soon. Within 3 months I believe was said. That was about a month ago. The Batinguel one is said to be progressing well and on schedule for next year (can't recall if there's a date, but my guess is second quarter of the year). Mayor Remollo said that city funds have been used to speed up the finalising of the Colon bridge.

    A few weeks ago, Yes The Best had some pictures of the Colon St Ext Bridge. Should be a while, they need to build the roads for the ramp to get on the bridge and it did not look like that had even begun.

    In competition with @Show Pony bridge? That creates a dilemma where to invest my hard-earned cash. Hmmm. :nailbiting:

    well i am thinking most of the time i won't even have to start the engine, so fuel cost should be quite reasonable

    i think the problem when these washed out was not the bridges themselves as much as inadequate protecting against washout at each end of the bridge
