Officials in Ohio have drastically lowered the legal weight limit on a historic covered bridge that was damaged by a delivery truck.

I live in California and visited Newton Falls in August of this year. From what I saw of the damage to the covered bridge it is hard to believe there is $57,000 in damage and will take 6 months for repairs.

unless you are driving a 1/2 ton pickup truck,all trucks should not use that bridge period.

**being that it was a doughnut truck that damaged the bridge the police remain undecided on whether or not to charge the driver or the company that owns the truck.**

The driver and/or the truck company should have paid the full cost of the repairs, not the insurance company.
