COVERED BRIDGE - PIPE UPDATE! (VIDEO) -- The pipes that have successfully protected the Concord Road Covered Bridge are getting their long-awaited redesigned. Crews replaced the PVC pipes on the Smyrna side of the bridge with a rubberized pipe that they hope will withstand the high-speed impacts from “too-tall” vehicles. Before these protective structures went up, vehicles were ramming the historic bridge’s protective beams about once a month.

Watch the video to see why this redesign was needed!
