The latest confirmed development in the north span load limit is that a field visit checks the posted rule against the route residents actually use. The update comes from the North Span over Mill Channel; the existing arrangement remains in force until the board closes this window.
Rell Doran, bridge inspector, confirmed 95 heavy crossings made under the temporary limit in the file. The previous window recorded 94; the totals do not settle whether the span can carry ordinary freight while a bearing stone is reset.
The unresolved point is specific: Carriers say the detour adds a second toll. The inspector says the seam needs one measured load before the limit changes. No final outcome has been posted before the scheduled decision.
Residents and staff continue under the current schedule while the review is open.
NEXT UPDATE: The Year fourth, river rise window 1 file remains open for its scheduled decision. Masons will record a test load after the new bearing stone is seated. A fresh window will use a new date and source record.
