(KLZA)--Bridges connect rural communities. That's the name of a special feature produced by the Missouri Department of Transporation, focused on the need to maintain key bridges that are, in the words of the agency, “a lifeline” for rural residents.
The current focus is the bridge over the Nodaway River, which allows fast travel for the residents of Maitland and Graham.
The travel route is vital for the transportation of students attending Nodaway-Holt RVII, with MoDot saying “any closure of the bidge can be a burden on both parents and the district's resources.”
Selected to address the issue, from a personal perspective, is Maitland Mayor Mark Russell, whose story is told through a video presentation.
Below, is the full feature from MoDot, while the video of Maitland can be viewed here.
