Per the Federal Register and other sites, effective 5 Oct 2017:
(c)(1) The Stickney Point Bridge, mile 68.6, at South Sarasota, Florida shall open on signal, except that from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily, the draw need only open on the hour and half hour.
I am surprised the incorrect info here has persisted so long.
