Its already finished. Drove across it aeveral times. It kinda sucks because no you cant see the dam at all when you go over. But its waaaay better than driving across the dam like i used to have too.

I enjoyed driving on the dam. I was able to stop and take photos. I'm sure there will be a fee to drive on the dam and also take the bridge. 
Richard Johnson11:34 AM
Nice view and I think I like the bridge with all of the cables before it was finished better than afterward.  I need to go there and search for your vantage point, above the bridge like that.

A cathedral for modern America. Over 100 men died building it. That is a good number for any cathedral.

Thank God there's going to be a quicker way around the f'n tourists!

This is not the Hoover Dam but Mike O'Callaghan Pat Tillman Bridge & was completed in 2010. It's an incredible piece of architecture that I, as a local, got to admire the different stages of its construction and appreciate the smooth traffic flow it allows for those who just want to pass the NV-AZ border without disturbing the visitors at the Hoover Dam. A site worth visiting!

Now as a tourist when you walk on the dam your view of the valley and beyond is obstructed by the bridge,but that is small price to pay to save the dam from all the heavy traffic,I wounder where they going hold the 4th july fire work .any one knows.?
