The Stimulus Bridge to Nowhere


Repairing this bridge, in the town of Hillsborough, New Hampshire, for pedestrian and bicycle traffic cost $150,000 in Stimulus dollars. See any pedestrians or bicyclists? The bridge doesn't actually go anywhere. Our government is so stupid.

Union Leader reported:
A historic stone arch bridge that received more than $150,000 in federal stimulus funds this year has fallen short of some people’s expectations — mainly because it doesn’t go anywhere.
