Inspection results in immediate bridge closure in Cass County

News

April 6th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

Cass County Engineer Charles Marker reports a bridge located a couple of miles south of Interstate 80 in Pymosa Township was closed immediately today (Wednesday) following an inspection. The high truss bridge is located on Chicago Road near Buck Creek Road, not far from the Buck Creek Church. Marker said their inspection revealed a wooden “pile cap” on the northeast corner of the bridge has shattered, making it unsafe.

Their concern is that the northwest corner of the bridge, which will carry more of the weight, might soon be in a similar situation. Marker says the bridge was closed so crews can replace the pile caps.

Marker said also, the Atlantic quarry where road rock is obtained by the Secondary Roads Department, is now closed, so crews are getting rock from the Lewis Quarry and the Stennett Quarry south of Griswold.
