Bridge Repairs Completed
KUEHNLE ELEMENTARY PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE REPAIRS COMPLETED AHEAD OF SCHEDULE
Thank you to our community for your patience as we worked through the emergency repairs on the pedestrian bridge near Kuehnle Elementary School. We’re excited to share that repairs that were expected to take up to six months were completed in just about one month.
After a full inspection, the bridge has been confirmed safe for public use and is now open to pedestrians once again.
Looking ahead, the Board is exploring options to replace both pedestrian bridges due to their age. We will continue to keep the community informed and will share any future closure updates as plans progress.
We sincerely appreciate your cooperation with posted signs and your support as we work to maintain and improve this important community asset.
