👷‍♂️🚧Greenville Rd Bridge Replacement October Update🚧👷‍♂️
Bridge Replacement is estimated to be 52% completed
What has been done so far:
-Old bridge has been removed
-Ledge has been mechanically removed
-Footing has been poured

Where are we currently:
-We are within the 28-day cure period for the footing

What is upcoming:
-Once the concrete samples pass the break test, we will begin settling the precast structures
-This will be followed up with Road Work, Railing work and a few more concrete pours

While the original estimated time frame was about 4-6 weeks for completion, this has been delayed slightly due to some unforeseen factors. Anticipating a mid-November completion.
For some context the original project design had the bridge being completed in 2 years, where our contractor is aiming for about a 3-month completion from start to finish.

As a reminder the transfer station is still accessible during their scheduled business hours.
