I have written about that bridge a couple of times.  It has a very storied past.  Search the site for 49 bridge and gas tax, maybe gasoline tax. I can't cut and paste on the forum or I would search it for you and post the link.  Maybe goofy will see this and do it.  He is known for dragging old posts out.  Anyway that is history, as to the present and immediate future  I seriously doubt anything more than last year's upgrades to the guard rails will be done in the forseable future. It was declared deficient back I  the 80's. I have been under that bridge and would not say it is in good shape. I was shocked when they added the extra concrete to the guard rails. I hope they used light wight concrete because after going under it I hold my breath every time I go over it.
