Does anyone know what year the Tampa By-Pass Canal at the North end of Yoeman Yard was widened to it's present day width? I have some photos showing that as a creek, with a small trestle, prior to the current width and new long trestle.

Thank you!

Most highway bridges in Florida have the installation date in the first concrete column. Go to the first highway bridge north of the A- line. It should give you the date.

It is the NORTH end. Carey,I think it was 1969 or 70.
