TAMPA (FOX 13) -
There some good news for Tampa
drivers, for once: the Columbus Drive bridge is open.
The bridge carries traffic over the Hillsborough
River, connecting west Tampa and Tampa Heights.
It's undergone a nearly $9-million renovation and been restored to its
historical appearance.
The Columbus Drive bridge is one of
only two bobtail swing bridges left in Florida.
It opens to the side, instead of
raising up.
It was built in 1927.
