From the article:
This bridge is no ordinary crossing. Built in 1944, it is the last timber truss superstructure owned by the state of California still carrying highway traffic — a historic landmark that locals consider part of their identity.
For the Albion Bridge Stewards, the state’s timeline doesn’t signal the end of their fight. Heid said the group will “be ready to step in and weigh in and advocate for the preservation of the bridge.”
As Heid put it simply: “We love this bridge. We believe that it should be there. It should be preserved, and we’re here to make sure that happens.”
