Phillips Inlet Bridge Realignment Project Proposed
The DOT plans a new bridge 10 to 20 feet north of the existing structure near the Walton County line in Bay County. It will be 46 feet 9 inches wide with two driving lanes and two emergency lanes. Traffic will remain on the existing bridge as a detour until completion, then the old bridge will be demolished. The Corps notes the realignment avoids a stout bridge that would harm wetlands. Some environmentally sensitive areas on both east and west Phillips Inlet sides will be filled. The project, on DOT’s list for years, is funded for fiscal year 1988-89.
