    Back before gps we had to look in the atlas and figure out the low bridges, it took a bit of trip planning but imagine driving up to that bridge and seeing a wood deck half rotten on it, then keep going. Are they going to build the bridge up to current weights being ran on trucks or is it going to be a 3 ton bridge? Some of the old cars we had weighed that.
