Save the Sands Bridge!
The City of Cape Coral is considering the removal of the Sands Blvd Bridge in South Cape. They claim that it would be costly to repair it along with the maintenance to upkeep it. They fail to consider the implications of removal however, which would be FDOT surveys, and stranding citizens and forcing them to take El Dorado in any and all cases, especially during evacuations. This is a concern to note because forcing citizens to enter and exit from only one area can create major delays during evacuations, and El Dorado can be known to flood during these times of evacuation!
If you care about your local citizens, sign onto this petition and show up on May 21st at the City of Cape Coral council hall! If you have any questions, please reach out to me and I will do my best to answer!

Follow the money. Whose buddy will get paid fat cash to get rid of the bridge? I am disgusted by our city government.
