Micropile Phase of Bridge Work Nears Completion

As of Wednesday, Dec. 16, bridge contractor Spartan Specialties had just 12 of the 76 pilings remaining to be finished before this phase of construction will be done.

“Hopefully, with weather holding and the holiday schedule, (they) should be completed by the end of the year,” said Village Manager Jeff Wallace in his report to Village Council.

Some bridge work will continue into the new year as weather conditions may permit; at some point work will be suspended until April 1 or thereafter.
