WG Editor Comment:
The schedule as shown in the bridge listing was published by the Coast Guard on Sept. 8, 2020 and was effective October 16, 2020. On June 1, 2021 Waterway Guide confirmed with the bridge tender that the bridge DOES NOT OPEN BETWEEN 4 - 6:30 as the reviewer states, and contrary to what is in the CFR's.
