Very true, but that was the contractor's fault.

You missed my point. It was started in the off season.

I was going the smart ass route.

I don't think this will have much impact on traffic as this is the pedestrian bridge separate from the actual bridge.

Cliff Knuer with Peble and Rish says the pedestrian bike path bridges will have lights. I complained about light pollution and he basically said too bad

Turtle friendly lighting?

Turtle friendly lighting?

That wasn't the issue, it was pedestrian and biker friendly lighting, not what was proposed.

Due to the location of the bridge, it is required to have turtle friendly lighting, which would also greatly reduce the light pollution.

My question is if it is turtle friendly.

 

[Mike Jones]

Every artificial light is adds to light pollution.

Leave South Walton Natural!

But Mike, we need more beach access and we need it NOW!

To heck with the turtles, give DR Horton and everyone else building subdivisions beach access will ya!

(Scar..). :-$

A letter to DOT about this project was approved at the March 24 county commission meeting. Will see if I can attach it. Funding is to come from TDC reserve funds.
