Abbeville officials learned on Nov. 30 that one of the most heavily trafficked bridges in the city had to be closed.
An inspection by the Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) of the bridge on South John Hardy led to the state closing it that afternoon.
“We’re still trying to get over the initial shock of DOTD closing a bridge that is so heavily used,” Abbeville Mayor Mark Piazza said this week, “without any prior notification to the city.”
