Allis State Park, VT (Brookfield area)

The VT DOT says there is a bridge out on Rt 65 by Sunset Lake.. the DOT says there is a "Floating" pedestrian bridge. Does anybody know if this is bicycle friendly, i.e. could I get across it on a bike (fat tires friendly)?

Small chance I may want to camp at Allis state park which is on the other side of I-89 and I intend to bike up the east side of I-89 so for me to get there, the obvious way is via Route 65, but the VT DOT mentions there is a bridge out by Sunset Lake..

Any yokel.. I mean locals know the status of that bridge?

And while I'm here, do you know of any decent campground in between Gifford State park in Killington and Allis State park in randolph? I know of Silver Lake in Barnard but that is about 6 miles off my route, which is a 12 mile detour...

I'm thinking Gifford may make it a way short day 2 and Allis might be a long day 2 with the expected elevation around Killington crossing the Long Trail. I expect to be camping in Dorset at Emerald Lake State park on Night 1.

You can probably push your bike across if they allow pedestrians, this bridge is often closed to cars - or you can just use the posted car detour which is only a few miles longer

I read the same status.. sounds like it will be OK if i need to cross it.. and the detour is probably not too bad.

I hope to pick up the cross VT bike trail around Plainfield at some point to get me to Ricker Lake, parts of that is on an old railbed...
