Glad to hear it!  As I'm sure all other residents of Maple St are.   And in-time for a 3-day weekend so I will definitely be enjoying the relative quiet.

I'm not guessing, but I just want to say the sooner the better!  My street (Maple) will return to a mostly quiet road.

I'm not sure who is holding the boards from the bridge, but I have a couple of them leaning against my house right next to the front door, at 22 Maple.  Whoever is going to repair the bridge can pick them up whenever they want.

The bus was too tall, and knocked boards off the top of both ends of the bridge.  No serious damage is apparent.  I lent them one of the many ladders of Justin Brown, to retrieve the boards from on top of the bus.  I didnt think to take pictures though, sorry.

As was already said, it was just a matter of time!

I'm surprised there hasnt been a vehicle-vehicle accident yet.

Current News & Events / Re: Campers Through The Covered Bridge?? I Think Not

That may have been me and my neighbor from across the street, Gretchen, who you saw talking to the camper owner, and then walking back through the bridge.  We did talk to someone on Sunday afternoon who had stopped before going through.  I live at 22 Maple (right next to the bridge), and it's been really crazy since the detour started.  At times when there is not much traffic, like late at night, some cars are going REALLY fast down Maple.  One car late last night sounded like it was going 50 miles an hour, with incredibly loud screeching tires.  Would it be possible to get a little bit of police presence at times to put a check on the crazier drivers?  Who should I contact?
