Businesses Struggle as Pensacola Bay Bridge Reopening Delayed Again
FDOT had previously announced the bridge would be open in some capacity by March 22, but now officials say the bridge’s reopening could be delayed as far as Memorial Day.
“A trophy piece that was considered not damaged shifted and indicated there’s some instability in the pilings,” State Representative Alex Andrade told WKRG News 5. “The suggested timeframe for a Memorial Day reopening is a conservative estimate because we’re not exactly sure how much repair and work is needed.”
