my observations are that all most every driver on AC is qualified to compete at the Nascar level .lol ( meaning they can dodge every obsticale in their path trucks,golf cars, people). as for the roads on AC i think they are all brick and laid by hand not any asphalt roads like in the states.

We have invested "up north", This is what we think: "WE DON'T NEED NO STIKIN BRIDGE"!!!

If this bridge is built will it have safety features so distraught people can't hurl themselves over the side and down into the deep, dark murky waters below?

Nope. Nothing to stop the tourists and/or locals from hurling away over the side.

probably all that hurling that made the water dark & murky in the first place. bridge or no bridge, all hurling should be done in the privacy of your own bathroom . . .

"Six Lots North Corona Steve" seems to be the only one on this board that wants a bridge across the cut. Is this to increase the property value of his lots or whatever business venture he is into? If indeed it is about business, the bridge would need to be big enough for large trucks. It sounds like it is only going to be large enough for golfcarts which doesn't seem logical, to spend time and money to build a bridge only large enough to allow golfcarts.

il will probally be the first gringo to jump over!

It stands to reason that only people interesting in making money on the north end of the caye are the ones that want this bridge.

Can I ask... is there any residents north of the cut that want the bridge? I mean residents that love AC for it's condition right now... not property and speculating home owners that want the bridge to increase values?

"It sounds like it is only going to be large enough for golfcarts which doesn't seem logical, to spend time and money to build a bridge only large enough to allow golfcarts."

There are several hundred commuting workers that use the ferry each day and the waits can be up to 2 hours (personally experienced). So yes, a pedestrian/golfcart bridge is of value to the community as a whole. A larger bridge would only be of value to commercial enterprises.
