This project is intended to replace the current bridge, which was constructed in 1973, and will enhance the structural integrity by incorporating current design standards along with improving safety, drainage, and adding new signage and striping. Proposed improvements also include milling and resurfacing of the roadway and a new sidewalk.

The Public Meeting is being held to present information about the preliminary design and provide the opportunity to provide feedback. You can participate online or in-person. The information presented during either format will be the same and all attendees will have the opportunity to comment.
