November 9, 2017
Another North Escambia bridge was closed Wednesday, as another opened and two others approach opening dates.
After a failed inspection, the bridge on Arthur Brown Road at Freeman Springs Branch, between Pine Forest and Pineville road was closed Wednesday. [More...]
Meanwhile, the Crabtree Church Road bridge over Alligator Creek, west of Sunshine Hill Road, was reopened.
Two other bridges that have been closed for months are expected to reopened soon, but one will be just a temporary bridge.
A temporary bridge on Arthur Brown Road over Boggy Creek, near the Walnut Hill Baptist Church, is expected to be completed by the weekend, pending weather and material availability. The temporary bridge is in place and approaches paved. Temporary striping and concrete barriers must be installed before the opening. The bridge was closed in September after failing inspection, after work started at the location in July to construct a temporary road and bridge in order to construct a new permanent bridge.
And Escambia County officials said Wednesday that the Molino Road bridge over Penasula Creek, just east of Sunshine Hill Road, is scheduled to be completed during the first week of December. It has been closed since January 3.

“Hey, I need to go to the grocery store for some milk”
“Sorry, you can’t get there from here”
“911..My father is having a heart attack, hurry, please help”
“Well we are consulting the maze to see if we have someone who can figure how to get there–do you know CPR?”
This is ridiculous, reaction rather than pro action. Seems to be the SOP.
The Road signs in Century need to be updated per the Federal Highway Administration. by January 2018 to highly retro reflective signs.
“that’s the town’s job”
“no that’s the county’s job”
“I am on it”
“Yes someone will be calling you”
Meanwhile ANOTHER hit and run has ran over the curve sign on the curve at State line road. While the additional recommended signs to delineate the curve have been being asked for for over one year now in addition to speed bumps– both County and Town.
It was supposed to come up at the town council meeting Monday in Century after I contacted a councilman (again) Did it?
