8:35pm–#Bridgeport CT– A man plowed through the barriers on Congress Street near the fire station taking down wooden barriers and pushing one granite barrier about 25 feet and pushing another one to the side. The man was taken to the hospital. Out of curiosity, I punched in East Main Street in my Google GPS and it did tell me to turn right onto Housatonic Avenue. The bridge has not been operational since 1997. It was originally opened to the public in 1910.
