I'll search the cushions of my couch and see what I can scrounge up... I think I can get a couple of bucks to go in on this.  (Of course I have no where to put it).
I'd hope, for the sake of potential I-68 detours, that the new bridge is completed and open before they get rid of this one.

We at KYTC District 10 have tried to find homes for old truss bridges as they are replaced. We've gotten some good press when I have done press releases and some nibbles, but the cost for disassembling and reassembling the bridges is prohibitive for most who show interest.

How about the Historic Bridge Park (http://www.alpsroads.net/roads/mi/bridge)?

An old bridge retirement home. Neat.
