Not visible in the photos are the hazard navigation lights required by 33 CFR 118.65, Lights on fixed bridges. https://www.dco.uscg.mil/Portals/9/DCO%20Documents/5pw/Office%20of%20Bridge%20Programs/Lighting.pdf Were those omitted from the bridge renovation or were they turned off to enhance the decorative lighting demonstration?
Now, if it can just be naintained to keep it well lit and patrolled to keep the scumbags out.
That is exactly what I was thinking. How long before most of the lights don’t function?
Last time a deadline was mentioned online, completion was supposed to be before Masters week. Obviously they missed that one. Is it too much trouble for someone to mention the new completion date?
I wonder if the light were placed every twenty feet (think Riverwatch) apart? Follow the money….
