The Navarre beach bridge is a nightmare to cross in summer if your a local & live in Navarre Beach…read more It's just a small two lane little bridge, wasn't built for mass traffic like it sees today. When I first moved here I rented a condo on Navarre Beach for 5 months till I found my home. At first, I wanted to live in Navarre beach, but that quickly all changed when I tried to cross this bridge every day to the shopping areas, groceries etc., as there is NO commercialism on Navarre Beach. You have to cross the Navarre bridge to purchase ANYTHING. AND in the summer season the traffic is backed up over it all the way across with traffic barely inching even thou the speed limit is 20MPH. It takes over an hour just to cross it, same thing on the way back. If you go the other way, the 7 mile stretch of beach thru the Santa Rosa Area to the Pensacola Bridge, the speed limit is also 25-35MPH & it's usually backed up & takes well over an hour to get to shopping over there. A nightmare situation. You basically have to schedule your entire life around getting to the grocery store before/after the traffic nightmare begins/ends. What's even worst is during the bird nesting season, the edges of this little bridge become roped off & protected so the birds can nest. They do not like the beach goers walking/jogging along near their babies. It's all very disturbing to their habitat. The moms constantly squeak & squawk it's heartbreaking. I stopped driving there. I do not go there anymore. Navarre beach used to be my favorite place. Now there are just too many people crossing this bridge. If you want to make a change in the world, start with the "man in the mirror." Navarre Bridge - Population minus me. Sometimes "Good-Bye" is the saddest word. Will never Return.

Why review a narrow bridge in the last sleepy beach town on the Emerald Coast? Well, this one can…read morebe considered a destination, as well as a landmark. There is a tight-but-protected, single-track pedestrian path on each side of the 2-lane roadway, so runners and walkers can have a decent workout taking the 1 mile distance from Navarre over to the beach (or 2 miles if out & back). The surface varies from sturdy concrete close to the bridge abutments to metal grates that allow a thrilling view of the distance between you and the water below. Once you hit the island, you'll find some great fishing and swimming spots just adjacent to the bridge. There are trash cans available to ensure litter is kept out of the water. Unlike the bridge to Pensacola Beach, the Navarre Beach Causeway currently is toll-free. That could change in the future, as plans are in the works to rebuild this bridge to make it wider and conform to current safety standards. There is also a controversial campaign in the works to rename it for the 45th President of the United States, but nothing has been settled yet. During the right season (April to September), watch out for nesting endangered sea birds including black skimmers and least terns. The area will be roped off and warning signs will indicate where you can't walk or park. The speed limit is also reduced to 20 MPH. If you are running or walking past, you'll hear these birds loudly squawking to stay away from their babies!

Watching the Blue Angels fly over Pensacola is not just an air show it's a gut-rattling,…read morechest-thumping experience. These jets don't just fly by... they rip across the sky like thunder with purpose. One second the beach is calm, the next second six Boeing F/A‑18 Super Hornet scream overhead, afterburners roaring, and the whole crowd jumps like they just felt the heartbeat of the Navy itself. Sand shakes, people cheer, and you realize real quick this isn't some quiet museum piece this is living American aviation. For me, it meant even more. I want to give a proud salute to my daughter, Kindle , who served in the United States Navy. I watched her graduate boot camp and later graduate air traffic control school right here in Pensacola. She even volunteered helping with the Blue Angels show. Standing on that beach watching those jets carve up the sky while thinking about her service... that's the kind of moment that sticks with you. Loud. Proud. Real. A couple facts worth knowing while the jets are tearing holes in the sky: the Blue Angels were formed in 1946, making them one of the oldest flight demonstration teams in the world. Their home base is Naval Air Station Pensacola, and every year millions of people watch them perform across the country. These pilots fly just 18 inches apart in some formations at speeds pushing 700 mph. That's not choreography that's trust, skill, and nerves of steel. So here's my thanks: to the men and women of the United States Navy, thank you for your service. To Pensacola for being the home of naval aviation, thank you for the hospitality. And to the Blue Angels thanks for putting on one hell of a show. Jets screaming, beach shaking, crowds cheering... America in full throttle.

The Baldwin County Bridge, it's official name, or the Foley Beach Express Bridge as it's referred to by us locals, is a toll bridge spans the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway at the southern end of the Foley Beach Expressway  (FBE) dumping onto Canal Rd in Orange Beach, AL adjacent to The Wharf.  The bridge was tolled and operated by BCBC. In December 2005, the Foley Beach Express was sold to Macquarie Infrastructure Group and incorporated into its American Roads, LLC portfolio, which already included three other Alabama toll roads and the Detroit Windsor Tunnel.The toll for two axeled vehicles used to be $2.75, but the toll trolls jacked it up to $5.25 when the lost the lawsuit to prevent our neighboring city from building a new alternative bridge nearby on Canal Road.  It was a long battle but the new bridge is finally under construction and there's some really great news about the bridge!!! Starting today, there will be no charge to drive across the Foley Beach Express Bridge after the state Alabama purchased the private toll bridge. Gov. Kay Ivey, or MeeMaw as many call her, announced yesterday that the state has completed its purchase of the toll bridge in Baldwin County. The $5 toll will be eliminated at noon today, March 23, 2024, and the bridge will be free to cross. Woohoo :-) The Alabama Department of Transportation purchased the bridge from the Baldwin County Bridge Company for $57 million, and  an additional $3 million will be paid to the city of Orange Beach for road improvements. When I said "toll trolls" I was referring to both The Baldwin County Bridge Company AND the city of Orange Beach. The Baldwin County Bridge Company had sued the state over constructing the new bridge, accusing the state transportation director of acting in bad faith during toll negotiations and then pursuing the new bridge project to financially damage the company. That finally got thrown out by the AL Supreme Court last year and here we are. But Orange Beach was also happy to lead the charge to stop the new bridge. If you wonder why they would be a party to that sham, here: How much $$ OBA made https://www.gulfshoresnews.com/how-much-has-orange-beach-made-from-tolls-see-report  Bottom line: No more tolls, no more trolls, no more tolls!!!
