JSC Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) Today, Sept 29th. Road is still closed. No work being done as of yet. You cannot get past the bridge to get to the other side (Ridge rd side) or the subdivisions. Nothing to see/look at. The water is down, the car that washed away is GONE.

Jetsmom Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I know Bakers Bridge is open and it appears that the Merchant Drive is also open (The signs were down this morning). I guess they are moving in that direction. Denton is still closed and will be closed for a while. Link to post Share on other sites
JSC Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I know Bakers Bridge is open and it appears that the Merchant Drive is also open (The signs were down this morning). I guess they are moving in that direction. Denton is still closed and will be closed for a while. I hope so, But if people would just believe it really is closed & if they are trying to get to the subdivisions on Waters , they can save time by taking a different route to begin with, , instead of trying to see if they can go on anyways. I tried going to Dallas yesterday & when I saw the barracade at merchants, I didn't try to go down it any ways. Thanks, we need to keep everyone updated on road openings & still closed ones if we can. Link to post Share on other sites

wenfen Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I have routine petsits that I do M-F. One is off of McClung, the one before that is off of Mein Mitchell. I used to travel MM to Ridge to Waters, crossed over Garmon, back onto Waters, to Nebo, and hopped onto McClung from Nebo. So now I have changed my route to MM to Hughes, Hughes to Wall, Wall to Nebo, Nebo to McClung. Its not that big a deal to do that, actually. Link to post Share on other sites
Superscoot52 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 I live at one of the subdivisions south of the bridge. When I'm outside, I place bets that the cars cruising down Waters going north will be coming back the other way in a few seconds. I'm rich now! Link to post Share on other sites

I just wish people would read the darn sign & realize 1000 ft & 500 ft DOES NOT CROSS the bridge/road. There's gonna end up being an accident there if they don't do someting better w/the signs.

MadisonsMom Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Idiots will be idiots Road Closed sign or not............... just saying I live in one of those subdivisions. After 12 years of going over that bridge, sometimes I absent mindedly turn that way. Link to post Share on other sites
JSC Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Thursday , Oct 1st. Road STILL closed! And while talking to someone, seems Waters rd is not on top of list to be repaired. So, if you live on the other end of the bridge/road don't bother turning on Waters. Please tell everyone you know that may live there. Link to post Share on other sites
Superscoot52 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Thursday , Oct 1st. Road STILL closed! So, what you're saying is that the road isn't open. Did I get that right? Link to post Share on other sites
Superscoot52 Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Dateline: Hiram, GA. A large truck was seen driving north on Waters Rd towards Lake Ramona around 7:15 PM (EDT) carrying a front end loader on its trailer. Some time later, the truck returned southbound on Waters Rd without the heavy piece of machinery. Could this be the start of repairs to the bridge that spans Lake Ramona? Local homeowner John Bob Jones commented that the repairs would be a blessing to the community. "Shucks, I done drive up there every darn day to see if its open. Sometimes I drive around to the Nebo Road side to see if its open up thataway, but shoot, I haves to turn around every dad gum time". Stayed tuned for further details as they are made available.

I hope is starting to be repaired. BUT, as long as the signs are still up, the road is STILL closed. Why go down the road if signs say road closed? Link to post Share on other sites

I did not see any equipment at the bridge on Ridge rd side, this morning. (AS fas as I could see.) From what the DOT told me yesterday, Waters rd is the least of the road problems in this county. Many roads need repair due to the flooding. So everyone , the road is STILL closed. Fri Oct 2nd. And it didn't sound like it would be any time soon.
