The county is having signs printed up to warn against traveling under the 56-year-old bridge, which separates the lower and upper portions of Tampa Bay. Hundreds of boaters cross under the span daily.
"Everybody who wants to go under that bridge will know there's a risk factor," Public Works spokesman Steve Valdez said Wednesday. "Obviously we can't stop everybody but they will know there is a risk."
The signs will be affixed to the bridge's concrete pillars and say something like, "Warning, "Falling Debris," or "Danger," said Valdez.
Maritime laws guaranteeing access to the Gulf of Mexico prevent the county from blocking access altogether. That leaves officials trying to convince boaters to stop going under the bridge until either it's repaired or demolished.
thats all we need at the syway.. signs.. enter at own risk.. now off limits to vehicles i can understand but not foot traffic!.. make an age limit too..
