May 23rd, 2012 by Ric Hanson

Several road and bridge projects in Cass County are complete or are wrapping up soon. Engineer Charles Marker says the bridge south of Highway 92 by Steinbeck’s is now open and all work is complete on that project. Marker says the bridge on South Olive Street is nearly finished, with final dirt work being conducted on the south approaches to the bridge. Some seeding and guardrail work is also planned, but the bridge is expected to be opened with the next week or so. In addition, pavement patching work on the Marne Road is complete, but the project will be put on hold until an overlay is ready to be applied sometime between now and this fall, when the contractor is free from other projects.
