I am shocked that one death got more than a side glance in Chicago, Illinois

the wait is finally over.
after eagerly watching the construction progress over the past 9 months, the bridge is officially open as of this morning (12/30)!!!
my daily commutes up and down the north shore channel trail have been forever improved.
the middle 6 miles of my 8 mile commute are actually entirely off-street now.
what an excellent belated christmas present!
the bridge is nice, a big and beefy cor-ten steel bow-truss span with asphalt road deck.
it's nice and wide with separate, marked bike & pedestrian lanes.
all-in-all, a nice bit of bike infrastructure that looks built to last.
