Future Prospects;Scheduled for replacement soon. Thank you.
The Central Avenue bridge was closed in late April of 08 for full rehabilitation.
The lower and upper deck are being completly redone.
Finaly!! thanks to whoever sent this pic!!!! I live 2 miles from a deck pratt truss[# 5718 kettle river bridge,Sandstone MN] I have been looking for a pic similar to my bridge. It is a single deck with a well formed arch and BEAUTIFUL river scenery. I plan on sending a pic asap as this is a must see!!! I walk on it and spend hrs enjoying the view!! PS it's rating is 78.6 and it is well preseved!
They did not do much to the bridge while it was closed. I think they only did truss repairs and slight roadway work.
They didn't even repaint it.
However, it is back open
