"Hood River-White Salmon Bridge over Columbia River gets $200 million grant for replacement."
[My reaction was $200m is cheap now days. And then I read:]
"The bridge is expected to cost $520 million."
[A half-billion is more like what I expected.]

"*Initial design rendering of the new bridge, not final design."

Aug 2023: The cost estimate for the new bridge is up to $600m. [10:25 video]
