Repairs set to flood damaged U.S. 136 bridge
08/14/2021

(KLZA)--Repairs to damage caused by the 2019 flood are scheduled to begin next week on the Atchison County U.S. Route 136 bridge over the Missouri River to Brownville, NE.

Contractors from Lehman Construction Company, working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, will begin repairing erosion damage around the bridge structure on Monday, Aug. 16.

Construction will take place under the bridge with crews utilizing river barges to complete the repairs, although some intermittent lane closures on U.S. Route 136 in Missouri and Nebraska may be necessary. Motorists may experience delays and should expect higher volumes of truck traffic. Repairs are expected to be complete in early October.
