    The Coast Guard announced a temporary change to the schedule for operating the CSX Transportation Railroad drawbridge over Bayou Sara near Saraland, Alabama. This adjustment will let the bridge operate remotely from a control center in Mobile, AL, instead of being tended on-site. The purpose is to test whether this change impacts navigation safety and to determine if a permanent change is warranted. They are seeking feedback from the public on this temporary measure until July 8, 2021.
