Be aware of a short shutdown of the causeway on Sunday morning!

Last one took about 20 minutes. They're blowing up parts of the old causeway. Be aware that this is not the last closure- there will be more! Traffic backed up to Exit 10 the first time, then Exit 8 the last time, but they got everyone moving quicker. They stop all traffic, as soon as everyone clears the bridge, they blow the explosives, then they have some guy in a pickup run the length of the bridge to check for debris, once clear, they radio the mainland side, and release the traffic. Not bad at all.
