Title: Gravel extraction at Tramner Bar
Post by: johnny on February 27, 2009, 07:57:39 AM

I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned here yet.. They're in full swing here now. They completed the bridge early this week and are full speed ahead. Good luck cutthroating around McDonald Rd right now.

It'll displace more than a few fish, that's for sure.
