I had no idea the new Cornwallis Bridge is now open. I just went over it this evening on my way to the White Oak Cinema. Boy, is the new hwy coming along fast....
Is any one familiar with "New Bethel Church rd"? Where does it lead too? and will it continue to stay open throughout the construction? I think it ends on 50 hwy? Will it still connect through to 50 (if thats true) all summer? Im lost. I never go that way...PLease let me know
The bridge opened at the beginning of April. New Bethel does not connect to Highway 50 anymore. Once the construction is complete, I don't think Highway 50 will conect. Too bad, I used that to cut through every once in a while.
BUT the bridge over Barber Mill Road is not even 5% done. At that section the 70 bypass will be over, not under, the per-existing road. It looks like it will be ages before that bridge is done.
Look again. They poured one of the end bents Friday and will probably pour another this week. They are making excellent progress.
Looked it over on Thurs. Glad to hear something major has been done since then! Thanks for the REPORT!
Ok so maybe no one know where new bethel is..its the road where cornwallis meets at the construction. Does any one know about its future? Please?
A report came out around the beginning of the year. The project was suppose to be something like 25% done by that point YET they were like 59% done already. Based on those kind of stats ... they are making great progress. I was disappointed that New Bethel no longer links to hwy 50. I think there is a plan for a road from Timber (near Timber & 50 through the land where they have rodeos) through to White Oak some time in the future.
A drought is only good for two things: Keeping mosquito levels low and keeping construction projects on schedule.
