Okaloosa Commission Halts Mid-Bay Bridge Authority Budget. What Happens Now?
Maybe it’s being tolled to and from work – or that many people believe the Mid-Bay Bridge should have been paid off years ago.
In fact, one Okaloosa Commissioner said last week “If it was my house, it would have been paid off by now.”

Recently, according to Commissioner Boyles, the Mid-Bay Bridge Authority (more info below on who they are) spent more than $10 million on repairs, although the bridge is less than 30 years old.
Residents expressed frustration that they are still paying tolls despite the amount of time that has passed since the completion of construction.
“If it was my house, it would be paid off by now,” Boyles said ruefully to the citizens.
