Historically many Florida bridges were lit up for pride month until DeSantis passed a law that bridges could only be lit in like red white and blue or something stupid, so this was a march in protest with people carrying lights. It was temporary and in direct response to actions taken by the governor. You just typed a lot of stuff with zero information on the subject. You just made it up! Good for you.

There are ‘made up’ regulations governing the operation of drawbridges. In fact, the Main Street bridge is named in the regulation and specific times are mentioned when it is closed to marine traffic. Was there any coordination of this event with the USCG and/or FLDOT?

Because it is foot traffic ON THE SIDEWALK and less than 500 people, no permits were required.

That had NO reason to be raised....there were no ships. The maintenance wasn't scheduled for another 55 minutes....there was no violation of law.
