The pedestrian bridge on Belle Terre Parkway has re-opened after over a year of delays.

With the work complete, the courtesy bus Flagler Schools provided to nearby neighborhoods for students at Wadsworth Elementary and Buddy Taylor Middle Schools will no longer be offered after Friday, Oct. 6, according to a Flagler Schools Facebook post. 

Elementary school students who live less than one mile from school will no longer be eligible for transportation services, nor will middle school students who live less than two miles from school.

Because the bridge closure impeded students’ access to both schools, Flagler Schools temporarily provided the courtesy bus to those impacted during the closure.
