2010 Inspection 

Status:Open, no restriction [A]
Average daily traffic:41,800 [as of 2009]
Truck traffic:13% of total traffic
Channel protection:Bank protection is in need of minor repairs. River control devices and embankment protection have a little minor damage. Banks and/or channel have minor amounts of drift. [7]
