What is the maximum weight allowed to be going over this bridge? It seems like every time a max weight sign is put up, it mysteriously disappears? Is it safe for loaded dump trucks and tractor trailers to go over? Better yet, is it safe for them to sit and wait on the bridge while the traffic is at a stand still? That's a lot of weight.

"The process is scheduled to begin, tentatively, in 2014 with the construction phase in 2016" - So this is the reason that our roads and bridges are in such bad shape?? It takes from 2014-2016 to get the job started and then after two years of getting ready, then they actualy start construction.
WOW that is some kind of system you have. Thank you for spending my money wisely, and I thought you were just throwing it around. I will pass your system of functionality around to different businesses to see if they can incorporate it into their practices.
Maybe McDonald's will adopt it. I order my Mac and fries in 2014 and they start cooking it in 2016 and then I receive it in 2018 at a cost of $313, 000. If it works for the government "IT HAS TO BE RIGHT!" right??

Dear William & UC PD ACCORDING TO THIS MEMO CONSTRUCTION IS 2018 ??? TOO LONG - Good question from Mr Borgen WHAT IS THE WEIGHT LIMIT on this bridge? No one has answered that - Lived here all my life and don't recall ever seeing a SIGN - LOADED SEMI's go over this constantly and have to WAIT on It if they are leaving the DeCicco Salt Box (or what ever that place is called by Mt Marion Post Office with No NAME identifying the business ) what's up with that too? Please provide a weight limit sign or advise via this format- I go over it every day and sweat hopeing I don't land in the Plattekill Creek before I get on 9W.
