Construction update:. All the railings are done. Paved it so the path and the bridge surface meet nice and evenly. Rode by while they were doing it Thursday and spoke to someone working on it who said it would probably officially open in a couple of weeks.

Unofficially rode from my house in Yarmouth to Chatham today. Jersey barriers are gone, temp fences are folded back at the bridge and in Dennis and at the Yarmouth end open enough for one bike to get through. Only issue is at the Yarmouth end there is a gap of 10-12 inches where the path and the road meet that's a good 4-6 inches deep.
Might be rideable by next weekend, still recommend meeting at the same old place and if a nice enough day tack on an exploratory ride over the Bass River bridge.
