Description
Look up all these issues I've reported about for 4 years: Broad River Road Bridge, Columbia Canal, Three Rivers Greenway shut down and cut off, affective roads way up to Greystone Blvd., accident with death when car was pushed over the bridge crashing into the rocks ending with a dead driver, closed fairly new handicapped entrance on the bridge into the park, heavy rain that almost sent the crane on a rubber barge into the bridge which could have taken out all bridges downtown, traffic causing potholes and roads ruined to subdivisions on both sides of the road (Huffman Heights and Skyland Estates with many condos and nice apartment homes) still not finished after 4 years. I want the report to go to WIS-TV, the STATE NEWSPAPER, CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT #2 PERSON IN CHARGE, CITY COUNCIL, THREE RIVERS GREENWAY, AND the NEW MAYOR BENJAMIN. How long does it take to build a bridge without spans? No bridge downtown would be acceptable to travelers if this was theirs! Drivers and workers coming from and going to the hospitals utilize this bridge and roads 2 times a day! And we have ambulances and fire trucks who highly travel this bridge. Millions was spent on the fish channel that rangers gave tours in the spring and summer explaining the importance of our Diversion Dam and fish channel. What are you going to do about destruction to the Three Rivers Greenway trails at the Columbia Canal and Broad River paths here? The traffic way up to Greystone Blvd. is DANGEROUS; we've a red light where Greystone Blvd. meets Broad River Road at the BP Station with drivers from both sides of the road with blind spots trying to get onto Greystone or Broad River at that light with 3 lanes there!

PLEASE COMPLETE THIS PROJECT! IT'S WAY OVER DUE! WHAT'S THE HOLD - UP?
I've been at this for over 2 years in our 4th year plus wait. It's just a simple project nothing fancy not even a span bridge. Why don't you add amber street lights to it for what so many of us has been through?
Our fairly new handicapped ramp was destroyed, park shut down off and on NOT for flooding issues as the other Greenway Parks (which includes ours) has had happen.
Our Diversion Dam, with a special fish channel for tourists, and our lower Broad River Road trail was shut down early on that leads to Riverfront Park!
Do you realize how many vehicles including ambulances and firetrucks and police use this bridge?
We are down to 2 lanes far too long.
One day last week we were down to Monday 1 lane ONLY!
Yes, there have been 61 reports on this and now mine makes 62!

If you will notice, "Click-Fix," this dangerous situation is NOW 5 YEARS old! And if you notice and keep up with these issues, you will know that MORE THAN 60 times has this been viewed. Thirdly, this critical issue has been on here well over 300 or 400+ days. What does 5 years equal as to the time and others put into this with no replies but lies or no answers?
KEEP THIS ISSUE OPEN, AND CHANGE YOUR FIGURES HERE! IT'S 5 YEARS NOT THE TIME YOU ALWAYS LIST!. MORE THAN 60 VIEWS HAVE OCCURRED! LIST THE TRUE # OF DAYS. FOR THOSE OF YOU IN "RIO LINDA, CALIFORNIA" (sarcasm) THAT IS 365 + 1/4 a year x 5!!!

Call SCDOT and ask to talk with someone about the project. You do have a legitimate complaint if the walkway & connection to the canal path hasn't been reopened. The specifications called for the path to remain open as much as possible.
