SEMA is nearing the completion of the replacement of the John Singletary Bridge in Polk County, Florida. Located over the Peace River in Fort Meade, the bridge was originally built to accommodate the typically smaller cars common in the 1930s and was named after John Singletary, a Polk County commissioner at the time.
