Relating to how the repair went on the Meredith Center Rd bridge this past summer. Once they opened it up much worse then thought. It went till this November 4 months longer then planned. Same type project

Is Hilliard passable from rte 3 just below Cumberland Farms to Parade rd? Probably not a "truck" route, but seems go straight across. Anyone familiar with this road?

On that screen shot copied from that other thread into post #8 here, note that the distance 19.50 is in KM (kilometers, the way the rest of the world does distance). That converts to 12.1 miles British measurement.

Oops, I missed that. That's probably why the OP deleted the post. Sorry.

That section of Hilliard Rd is not passable..... well maybe with a SXS!

That's why I asked. On Google Maps, it's a line that goes straight across. Seemed too obvious to be missed by others.

Thanks, Woodsy

I don't think any of this bridge repair should be a surprise as most everyone knew that this bridge repair would be happening at some point.

To me, the biggest worry would seem to be the time frame for this project; the existing bridge is very old, and some unforeseen findings during the construction project "could" make this go on longer than anticipated.

Let's hope the crews can get the job done during the estimated time frame!

Just a quick response to fatlazyless's post, it seems to me there was a lot more expressions of hate and divisiveness in the posts that followed than in his.

Here's hoping our country will be more unified by the time the bridge is finished.
