Capenews.net – The US Coast Guard announced yesterday that will they will be closing the Cape Cod Canal to boat traffic during the day, for two weeks at the end of this month, in order to do maintenance work on the canal’s vertical-lift railroad bridge.
The Coast Guard said that the canal will be closed between the hours of 7 AM and 5 PM Monday, January 20, through Friday, January 31.
My grandmother used to say “You don’t know shit about nothin'” and after reading this I realize she was right. Does this happen? Has anyone ever heard of them shutting down The Canal for two weeks? I would think this is a bigger deal than closing the Mass Pike.
If they can do something this dramatic maybe they could close the bridges for a few weeks this summer and give us a little break from the tourists. We could set up bleachers so we could all see the looks on their faces when they are told Cape Cod is closed for two weeks.
