Board of Supervisors gave a report on the process of the bridges in Simpson during their regular scheduled meeting Monday, October 16, 2017.
As of meeting time Monday, two bridges had been reopened, Star Braxton Road Bridge and Harrisville Braxton Road Bridge.
The bridge at Sharon Saratoga was scheduled to open Monday which in deed did occurred.
The repair crew is currently working on piling located on New Hope Road Bridge. Work is expected to be completed by end of week and hopefully reopened at that time.
The next bridge to be tackled is Tom Berry Road.
The board discussed replacing two bridges with rail car tank culverts. The bridges chosen were Pokal and Graveyard road bridges.
Remaining bridges are still being discussed and what is the best economical solution.
The board is working hard to restore all citizens back to normal travel routes as quick as possible. Some bridges require additional work and additional time is needed for repairs.
