STOP HERE ON RED

One of the bridges into Avalon is undergoing (much-needed) repairs this spring. It’s a particularly tall bridge: understandable, as it saves the expensive and trouble of building a drawbridge over a navigable waterway. Tall enough that when on one side of it, you cannot see the other. I suppose this method is quite a bit less expensive than posting two people with walkie-talkies and stop signs on tall sticks at either end… I’m only surprised I’ve never seen it in use before.
