Covered Bridge divides Jay. A new bridge located upstream from the Jay covered brodge would aesthetically harm the area, said a majority of residents who responded to a recent town-wide survey. , the citizens group that has opposed a new structure crossing the AuSable River 600 feet upstream from the historic bridge, mailed surveys to about 1,700 Jay residents. More than 400 were returned and and 72 percent of those agreed . . . that the new bridge would "violate the preservation of this scenic area."
