Big River Crossing / Harahan Bridge History

[@Whatidunno1]

THANKS for sharing ! This history should never be forgotten or lost.

There's a similar bridge in Louisville with lanes on both sides that closed to auto traffic in the late 70's when a dump truck partially fell through one of the lanes. It was too heavy and had no business being on it. I got to ride across it when I was a kid in my folks car. Wish they'd re-open it to pedestrian traffic if nothing else but Norfolk Southern doesn't want the liability. In the meantime we do have the old Big Four bridge as a pedestrian bridge.

Get your bikes out and ride over the Mississippi! Hopefully, those of us who walk dogs will be permitted on Big River Crossing.

+Rehim Babaoglu I have seen dogs, skateboards, and razor scooters. Have yet to see a busker or a tamale cart.

Oh, they're coming. Nothing stops free enterprise.

I’ve walked across it a few times
