Fly Creek Pedestrian Bridge Finally Taking Shape

Fairhope, Alabama

Updated.

Fly Creek bridge site

U.S. 98 IN MONTROSE

The missing link of a multi-use walking/biking trail along north U.S. 98 that connects the massive Rock Creek/Sandy Ford neighborhoods to the rest of town should be competed early next month, if all goes well.

The aluminum bridge spanning the creek is set to be lifted into place shortly.

Even though most of the trail has been completed for almost a year, bridge construction was delayed due to numerous problems with the site itself, including locating underground utilities below the creek itself ... and on its banks.

Funded by the Eastern Shore MPO using mostly federal and state dollars, once completed the trail will provide a transportation alternative for the area, where traffic congestion concerns are mounting.
