This week, Governor Jim Justice and local elected officials cut the ribbon to the new Big Blue Bridge that will give 14 households a safe way across Big Sandy Creek. The new one is better positioned for when high water comes.

The old Big Blue Bridge could be torn down in late spring or early summer.
