Bridge Closed To Boaters???

Join the forum discussion on this post - (1) Posts

For those that travel through downtown Redding over the Cypress Avenue Bridge you have probably gotten caught up in traffic sometime during the day.  Whether it is going to or coming from work or during the lunch hour we’ve all been annoyed at the delays.  Now, having a closed turn lane onto Bechelli and less space to travel on the roadways may not be the only complaint for Redding residents.

A panel of 8 boaters, fisherman, river guides and kayakers has been assembled for the City Council to help advise on what should be done during the reconstruction of the Cypress Avenue Bridge through the year 2010.  While the bridge is slated to remain open for most of the duration, the committe may recommend that the waterway beneath the bridge actually be closed for safety reasons during construction.

If this topic interests you it will be decided upon on March 18th at the Redding City Coucil meeting.
