Aline Shotts Bridge on North Farnham to open next week

The City of Galesburg has announced the date for opening the Aline Shotts Bridge on N. Farnham Street to vehicular traffic has been moved to Friday, December 28, 2018. 

Previously, the contractor had targeted December 21 as the potential date for the opening of the bridge.

Due to multiple delays in receiving the bridge fence railing from the supplier, the contractor has informed the City that the required work will not be complete by that date.

The bridge fence railing is installed on top of the outside wall of the bridge and is a safety measure that is required to be in place prior to the opening.

The bridge will be opened to vehicular traffic only with the sidewalks remaining closed to pedestrians.

The contractor will return in the spring to finish pouring the sidewalks, landscaping, and paving.
