ALBANY, GA --
Drivers on the Oglethorpe Boulevard Bridge shouldn't worry if they see part of the bridge missing.

Orange cones are set up around part of the sidewalk railing that seems to have been broken off.

Bruce Maples with the city's Department of Engineering says there was a car accident sometime over the weekend and either Public Works or Georgia Department of Transportation crews will work on it.

They do not expect to close down the bridge any time soon.
