I40 Memphis Bridge

We drove across this 2x a couple weeks ago............

Thankfully the I55 bridge isnt too terribly far away and will get you where you need to go...but man congestion is going to SUCK with the main bridge down and everybody detouring to the I55 Bridge. Looks like it adds about half an hour detour to jog down to I55, across the river, and back up to I40.
The I55 bridge isnt NEARLY as scenic either...

Correction... it USED to add about half an hour. Care to guess what it's going to be now?

One of my coworkers in-laws live in Memphis. The Memphis folks told them they couldn’t see the new baby if they haven’t been vaccinated. I just sent him the link with the caption ‘problem solved’

I used to use Helena bridge and skip Memphis altogether.

Sure. 30 minutes.

Months to fix lol, put a crew of non-union welders on it and it will be done by morning and stronger the the bridge around it.

The biggest thing that sux is that now you can't easily get to the Bass Pro Shops black pyramid immediately to the left of that bridge. That place is a sight to behold inside. I guess ammo will really skyrocket in West Memphis now.
