In a surprising update...still nothing done. I had 311'd this back in June, and this was the reply.

WR - spoke with the PM for the project and was told that the barriers were moved inwards to safely facilitate the work on the bridge railings. Unfortunately, there have been some unexpected delays with supplying some of the specific replacement railing components, which is holding up the majority of the work. Procurement for custom pieces is hard to schedule especially when the work was not pre-planned, these types of damages are not foreseeable and fortunately not very common. There was also some coating repairs that have been taking place in the meantime but may not be apparent on all days. The option to work on one side at a time was also investigated but would have yielded a significant increase in cost and likely doubled to duration which was not seen as a favorable option at the time. I was assured that the visible signs of work should resume shortly as the materials become available and they will continue to work hard to minimize the work duration.

"Shortly." Uh huh. They probably should have left the bridge as it was, and patched up the broken panels until they actually had their #### together. I'm beginning to think this bridge is cursed.
