Editor,

It's August now, the new bridge is done and in use for a few weeks. A few kinks need to be worked out till we get used to the new stops and goes, but all in all it's a good fit!From the big dilemma, the beams are coming, the beams are coming, the beams are coming to the end of the whole project, there was not too much of a problem with traffic. We knew there were gonna be some tie-ups, and there were but they say temporary inconvenience, permanent improvement.A pat on the back to all who were involved with the project. A good job was done by all! You can hardly notice the 18-inch dip, where the pillar sank, when you're driving over the span. I don't know where that rumor started.As far as the old bridge goes, may it rest in pieces; it served its purpose. The horse is dead, stop beating it!A Native ChunkerPete BottE. Mauch Chunk
