Muddy Brook Bridge Repairs






















Someone in our community asked me what was happening at the Muddy Brook bridge. I didn't know so I asked WCA member Mike Ottavi to get the details. Mike went and talked to the people at the site and here is his report.

"According the the State Engineer at the job site, the repairs to the Woodland Valley bridge are the result of a shift in the deck (the part between the concrete piers at either end of the bridge). The job entails a realignment of the deck and replacing the rubber bearings that support it. The crew working on the bridge are involved in several other projects all over the Hudson Valley at the same time. Thus the interruptions to the work at the bridge. The engineer informed me that they are almost finished with the project."
