A new bridge for the Ballard Trail

All in a days work once the old one was demolished

Nov 17, 2020

Good morning Norwich,

I am sharing this post from Steve Flanders for you to read and I think and hope you will enjoy it. I certainly did. Steve and I recently hiked the Cossingham trail I will be reporting on that soon. Now back to this story:

I especially liked the fact that it was demolished in one day and yes that day was Friday the 13 th and then completed it the next day with no mishaps to report at least none that I have heard of yet.

21. Friday the 13th, a bridge demolished, and a new one built the next day!

Read about how eleven of your neighbors demolished and replaced a bridge on the Ballard Trail in seven hours of work, starting on Friday the 13th! Thank you, Norwich Women's Club, for providing funding towards this project!
