Ben Sawyer Bridge Swing Span Is Underway
Thursday, February 04, 2010
The Ben Sawyer Bridge’s new swing span began its journey from the former Navy Base in North Charleston to the bridge site on the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway at 6:25 this morning. They are expecting to be around the Ravenel Bridge within the hour to arrive at the ICW around noon for high tide.
To prepare for the arrival of the swing span barges, the ICW at the Ben Sawyer Bridge was closed at 7a.m. this morning.
