The good news is, starting right after Thanksgiving Weekend, They’ll finally be doing much-needed construction on the Ol’ Stadium Boulevard Bridges that are crumbling over State Street and the railroad between Main Street and South Industrial.

The bad news is, there’s no good alternate route through that area.

The bad news is also that the route will be closed for just under a year, because it’s just that much construction.

For more information and suggested (though not good) alternate routes, here’s the project website.

Those bridges have been standing there since 1928,and evidently they’ve had it UP TO HERE with the traffic, already.

“Rockin’ Robbie” of Romulus was the winner of Metro Delivery’s Trivia Contest in October, correctly answering the question: “Where is the world’s largest limestone quarry?”
with the correct answer of “Rogers City, Michigan.”

A $50 Busch’s Gift Card was hand-delivered by an Actual Metro Delivery Driver, to commemorate the event.

Congratulations, Robbie, and keep on Rockin’!
It’s kind of like a do-it-yourself Grand Canyon.
