CAUTION: Portable Bridge
- Date Reported: Jul 6, 2018
- Reporter: Ted Stehle
- Source: Waterway Guide
- Description:
A farmer at mile 20.1 has permission to slide a portable bridge across the Dismal Swamp Canal to move his livestock and farm implements across the canal. This bridge (3' above waterline) is normally only in place long enough for him to accomplish his task. Be patient if the waterway is blocked when you get there. For help with this bridge call the visitors center (252-771-8333).
