Venice Bridge Reopens After Mechanical Glitch

0:00Circus Bridge in Venice, Florida, just reopened after a mechanical glitch forced its shut Tuesday afternoon. It's the southernmost band connecting folks on and off in this island, handling key traffic flow every day, the closure hit right before 12.30 pm, blocking both directions completely and snarling up the usual rush. Drivers face real backups trying to access the island, but local police stuck around to manage the scene and keep things from turning chaotic. Repair crews jumped on it fast, wrapping up the mechanical work without much delay. Now the bridge is running smooth, so Venice traffic's back to normal, eyes open for any other local hiccups.
