I got up there yesterday, only to find that they are behind schedule.

Any thoughts on when it might really be done?

They were supposed to be done by today. But remember, this is the gov't at work.

I was in Pemberton on Labour Day weekend and talked to guys that had driven though then with no problem. I do not think the bridges are gone, just reduced load ratings, thus closed to heavy commercial (ie logging) vehicles.

I whent through there just after they decided to close the road. the bridges are fine. They have a load limit reduced to 3 tonnes. This was in July. Unless they have taken the bridges down, they are still ok. There is only one kind of ify bridge. It looks solid underneith, but some of the surface boards are rotted. it is still easy to cross though.

I guess you can't cross it anymore

The spot on the way there called "Doctors Point" was pretty cool, looked like a tropical beach. (without the sun)!!
