(KLZA)-- The Nebraska Department of Transportation has reopened the Highway 8 bridge over the North Fork of the Big Nemaha River near Salem with a new weight restriction.
Following the completion of a bridge inspection last week the bridge, located just east of Salem was closed to all traffic.
Friday the bridge was opened to vehicles with a 9 ton weight limit.
The Department of Transportation will continue to have experts evaluate the bridge and determine what steps need to be taken to repair the bridge in an effort to remove restrictions.
