Sakonnet River Bridge Part II

Thanks for the comment! Here is the latest as far as I have heard,

~~One feature that survived the cost-cutting is the 13-foot bicycle and pedestrian walkway path along the bridge’s northern edge. The DOT had looked at narrowing the bridge to a width of 76 feet and eliminating the bike and pedestrian lane. ~~

This is from the Providence Journal back in June of 2007.

I believe that there was a lot of push back on eliminating the bike and pedestrian lane so the DOT will leave in the plans.
