(KLZA)-- Nemaha County, Nebraska Commissioners traveled to Falls City Tuesday to meet with Richardson County Commissioners to discuss a bridge replacement project on 720 Road on the Richardson / Nemaha County, Nebraska line road.
Engineer Jeff Wagner was also present for the meeting along with Nemaha County Clerk Joyce Oakely.
Third Commission District residents Bill Ely and Robert Beckett, along with Jerry Kennedy and Jeff Ely attended the meeting to voice their concerns with the plans that have been made to replace the bridge. Different designs were discussed with both counties agreeing that a design with two, 9-foot broken back tubes as designed by Mainelli and Wagner & Associates was best for the project.
Richardson County Highway Superintendent Scott Huppert noted that $11,000 has already been spent for surveying and engineering fees for the broken back designs. Wagner indicated a re-design would cost $1,500 to $7,000 more in engineering fees.
Both County Boards agreed to not make any design changes.
