[gatortalk] Jacksonville Traffic for UF/UGa

Those of you coming to Jacksonville for the UF/UGa game need to be aware of a major traffic issue.

 

Last week a Navy Ship hit the Mathews Bridge in downtown causing structural damage, a couple of steel beams were ripped off the bottom of the bridge.

 

The bridge was closed indefinitely, I’ve seen estimates of 1 – 3 months for repairs..

 

The bridge was closed yesterday for the Jaguars Game, but that crowd is dwarfed by the UF/UGa game day traffic.

 

If you are not familiar with the Mathews Bridge it is one of 2 bridges that bring traffic directly to the stadium and if it’s closed, getting downtown is going to be a nightmare for the game.

 

You’ve been warned.
