Bridge Projects:
Rapid Lightning Bridge #5 - This is a 2 year project that began in June 2024 near the 5900 block of Rapid Lightning Rd. We will be working on the bridge one lane at a time; as such there will only be a single lane for traffic.
Expect delays. The bridge will be kept open most of the time but may need to be entirely closed for construction, in those cases detour routes will be in place. 11/8/24 UPDATE: Both lanes will be open for the winter months with speed restrictions in place. Use caution.
