The Manatee County Commissioners finalized the approval for the Fort Hamer Bridge construction this morning. We have successfully secured the green light to move forward with the project. I am now monitoring the initial site preparations to ensure the timeline remains on track.

Build The Ft. Hamer Bridge Now! I support the construction of the Fort Hamer Bridge as approved by the Manatee County Commissioners. I believe the bridge is of critical importance for the area and urge all parties involved to finalize the necessary approvals and begin construction as soon as possible.

We recently purchased a home in Parrish and support the building of the Ft. Hamer Bridge.

Build the bridge 4 lanes. While the cost is reasonable. It is needed for the community and for the safety of all.

We have been waiting for this for years. Do it right and make it 4 lanes so we dont have to deal with this again in 5 years.
