Bridge Delays Or Detours: Fannie, Rockaway Creek, North Pineville And Devine Farm
March 18, 2014
Bridge work is causing delays and detours for drivers at four North Escambia area locations.
Three bridges will be limited to single lane closures on varying days from about 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m through March 20:
- Rockaway Creek Road bridge over Rocky Branch on the Alabama/Florida state line. The bridge was constructed in 1965.
- North Pineville Road over an unnamed branch between Tullis and Jakes roads. The bridge was constructed in 1965.
- Devine Farm Road bridge over a branch of 11 Mile Creek. The bridge was constructed in 1962.
The Fannie Road Bridge over Dead Lake closed last week. It is being replaced with a new concrete structure consisting of two 12-foot wide travel lanes and eight foot shoulders. Fannie Road is closed during construction and traffic detoured on to Highway 4 and Highway 29 in Florida and Highway 29 and Old Fannie Road in Alabama. Restrictions will remain in effect through the fall of 2015.

Probably not possible but could the end of Old Fannie Road that use to cross under the rail tracks be reconnected with the new bridge into downtown Flomaton. This could save drivers a lot of time, especially since the project is expected to take over a year to complete. Just wondering.
