    Does anything know how the surf has been in that area lately? I know alot of sand got moved around, especially when they filled in that huge cut.

    I drove across that new bridge a few weeks after they finished it and it was pretty wild.

    Theres a cam at surfline, and obxsurfinfo.com has some cams and daily reports with pictures. I hav'nt been out there since the bridges have been rebuilt. Are the bridges you refer to the temp. ones or permanent?

    the supports appear to be permanent. the span looks temp. I was there a week ago. as far as the surf, couldn't tell you, haven't tried to go out with a decent swell this year. usually hit the first place that looks good.

    Temporary

    Yeah, I read that the bridge is temporary but it will be in use for 10 or so years.
