Opened in 2004 to replace the old 2 lanes, Robert Smalls Parway bridge ( a part of it has been kept as a fishing pier along the new bridge), the 9000' ( 2750m) long Broad River Bridge allows the 30 000 vehicules a day, who use SC170 to cross that wide body of water of the Broad River.
To install, as usual, download and unzip the file on your desktop, or where you want, and drag and drop the "beaufortsc-broadriverbridge" folder in your Community folder, and voila.
I just uploaded 3J1-Ridgeland Airport, that is just a few minutes north oh Beaufort. Take off from there, and come fly above Broad river, down to the ocean, then turn east to follow the shore, and soon you'll see my Hunting Island Light House ( if you have installed it ). Then come back north west to fly over Beaufort bridges ( I have two more to come very soon), and go land at KARW, my local airport.
I have the marshes without the trees everywhere coming soon too. So come and check here.
Enjoy a flight at sunset, as I wrote earlier, the sun hit strong here, and the colors are so much nicer in the evening.

Thank you for posting this file. And I'm looking forward to your updates and any other fixes you publish. But first, please update the name of the modellib.BGL file to reflect MS/Asobo guidelines (Oct. 2020) to give it a unique name, such as adding the 'ICAO code' for airports to the file: Example (ICAO-modellib.BGL) or in this case, maybe broadriver-modellib.BGL, and then update the layout.json file to reflect the new name. The Problem: MSFS only reads the first file in the Community folder named modellib.BGL and then uses that file for all others with the same name. Renaming it avoids conflicts with any other scenery in the Community folder and gives your scenery the proper appearance with fewer problems/conflicts with other files in the Community folder.
The same is true for the 'mycompany' folder. Rename this as a unique name. Simply add the ICAO code to the folder name or in this case: broadriver-mycompany and update all the entries in the layout.json file.
And the same is true for mymaterials if that ever applies to your scenery.
You can also completely rename the file(s) completely, leaving the appropriate extension.
Again, Thank you for this scenery.

Thanks for all those very good informations. I'll recompile every projects, and follow the name's rules. Sorry for the conflicts that my mods may have done. I have no problem on my computer, so I never thought about a conflict.

Thanks Carlos. I live a couple miles south of the Bridge, and I have the chance to see that sunset and those amazing colors every evening. ( not today as it's raining). Sunset on Broad River is so nice, that many Beaufort habitants come to enjoy it with a walk on that pier near the bridge. I really need to upload the marshes mod, even if it need more works, as removing those trees from the marshes completely change how our Low Country looks.
