(Atlantic, Iowa) – Warm weather continues to allow work to proceed on various road and bridge projects in Cass County (IA). County Engineer Trent Wolken said Tuesday, that a culvert located on 720th south of Tucson Road is now open. During a meeting of the County Board of Supervisors, Wolken said 720th opened-up on Monday. Work continues, meanwhile, on other road projects, thanks to a few days of warmer than normal temperatures.

Wolken said crews were expected to begin pouring 290-yards of concrete for Bridge #319 deck over Indian Creek on G30, today (Wednesday).

Once the deck is cured, Wolken said that should get them into the final stretch of construction, which includes finishing the rails along the road.
