Average daily cars crossing bridge=6000 (per KCMO)
x 365x 2.5x 1 (mile detour from Potomac to Amity,Barry, your results may vary, 2.5 yrs for new bridge)
Divided by 20 (swag for average mpg of vehicles)
x$ 3.50 a gallon
$958,125...the conservative estimate of how much the detour will cost motorists. On the bright side, some of that will be going to your favorite governmental entity in the form of gas taxes...half full...right?
