You know the bridge you have to go over to get to Riverworks if you're coming off of the 190? The one you have to go over to get to General Mills? It didn't pass an inspection so, it will be upright and worked on for months.

 

The bridge itself hasn’t been rehabbed in over 50 years and a recent inspection by New York State discovered the massive cables, which lift the bridge so large boats can pass in the Buffalo River, are seriously compromised
