Bossier Parish bridges at risk: A list of all that are 'structurally deficient'
On the 4th of July, just as Independence Day celebrants were heading out for a fireworks display at the South Bossier Park, a Bossier Parish Sheriff's deputy reported a bridge "was sinking." The Caplis-Sligo Bridge over the Red Chute Bayou was immediately closed by the Bossier Parish Police Jury. How can a bridge suffer such a dramatic failure that warrants immediate closure? Bossier Parish has an acute bridge problem. Worse than the state. Much worse than the nation.
