Along with replacing the deck, work includes increasing vertical clearance under the bridge and performing other minor maintenance. The overall project also includes construction of a multi-use path from Deerfield Road across the new bridge deck to Cornett Road, and improvements to Ohio 48 for shoulder restoration.
Along with this project is a trail extension of the Countryside YMCA Trail along Deerfield Road, from East Turtlecreek-Union Road to Forge Road. This phase of the project will provide a connection to the existing Lebanon Bike Park, as well as add an overland multi-use path along Ohio 48, from East Turtlecreek-Union Road to Shattuck Avenue.
Eagle Bridge Company was awarded a contract in the amount of $4.3 million to complete the project, and all work is scheduled to be completed in late fall of this year.
