Bridges reach two sides of the water. The other side of that bridge reaches about 14,000 people and will connect them and the emergency response departments with the local airport.

$200 million is a lot for 14,000 people too. And they can already get to the airport by taking a ferry. It's amazing the number of big government types on FR.

It's actually more money and fewer people. $315,000,000 is the recent official estimate and the 2004 Census Bureau estimate is under 13,300 people.
