The F St. pedestrian bridge that crosses Alhambra Creek one block east of Alhambra Ave. in Martinez is currently closed and expected to be removed as soon as possible due to continued erosion affecting the bridge.
The city is asking the public to avoid this area.
Recent storms have eroded the footing underneath the bridge leaving several utility lines potentially compromised and at-risk should the bridge collapse.

No worries.

The Fed’s will funds its replacement thru Martinez’s recent disaster declaration.

The rain just keeps exposing our outdated and weak infrastructure, we must fund and rebuild our community NEW and STRONG
But first, another cool 50 billion for Ukraine!
That’s a bummer for folks that use it to cross the creek to get to Safeway.
Lousy infrastructure management, deferred maintenance, we (tax payers) pay to build things, the people running the place let them rot, then we remove them. Disgusting. If we did that where I work, we’d be fired.

One would think the bridge would have been replaced as part of the various “roads n bridges” infrastructure stimulus bills since 2008.

WTF?
Tax dollars in California are no longer spent on projects or services that would benefit citizen taxpayers.
