As someone who has visited the area and has enjoyed being able to visit the local businesses (traveling via this bridge), I ask that you please work to rebuild & reopen it so that locals and tourists might be able to enjoy this little community for all that it has to offer!

Fondest memories of my childhood and many return trips to visit my aunt and uncle's cabin. Please save the bridge. Show your community they're worth it!

This bridge is vital to the well being of the community and the local economy. Ambulances could not get to the Falls to rescue injured people.

The community needs this. The General Store is the heart and soul of Milanville. We need to save the bridge and help the residents.

Split the cost of repair or replacement with New York. Example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Champlain_Bridge_(2011)

My family and I have depended on that store since it has been open. I can't imagine what we would do without it.

This is a community landmark, fixing the bridge is the only way to keep this type of gem viable.

Please fix this bridge. The traffic it handled is now being added to and stressing the other bridges in the area.

Closure of the Milanville Bridge is a serious denial government services and East-West access that will adversely affect residents, businesses and visitors as well as emergency services (e.g. ambulance). It should simply not be tolerated. River Road is not a safe North-South alternative to Rte. 97. Necessary repairs should be expedited perhaps with reduced weight limits if that is a critical issue.

I have enjoyed the river community from the first moment I arrived here in 1981. It saddens me to see the Milanville Bridge closure causing such disruption to this wonderful community. It's repair and reopening should be considered a priority.

The bridge is on the National Register of Historic Places and is an important part of our community.

I was shocked to see the Milanville bridge closed and can't understand why it will not be repaired. This will have a major effect on the local businesses and livelihood of the residents.
