Things are happening y’all!

Per Department of Transportation District 9 Engineer, Jim Moore:

The bridge will start being disassembled October 30th. This process should take about 3 days. The road will be temporarily paved. The next step will be core drilling, which will take 3-5 months. Orders Construction was awarded the bid. After this, there will be permanent paving and the project will be finished.

We appreciate everybody's patience, as this has been quite a process.
