Phil Kraus: Back in the late 60s early 70s we used to drag race across this bridge. Pretty exciting then since the whole stretch had just been re-paved!
[According to some comments, it has been closed for rehabilitation for over two years. They talk about it being a major inconvenience, yet I-74 parallels it. The video says the average usage is 2,600 vehicles a day.]

Jason Tompkins provided these five photos as comments on Satolli's post. It appears that they didn't fix things, they just painted over the problems.
