(KMZA)--Pottawatomie County officials have announced the Havensville Road bridge project has been completed and is open to traffic.
The announcement was made Monday in a social media post.
The county says the contractor will seed the project during the week of December 22, and pavement striping will be completed next year.
The post says the bridge, which is located three-quarters of a mile east of the Onaga Road between Sunflower Road and Trails End Road, has been replaced with a reinforced concrete haunch slab bridge with a 28-foot roadway width.
The project replaced a bridge that was over 90 years old.
A bridge inspection in 2021 indicated accelerated deterioration of the bridge substructure.
The county says repairs to the substructure would have cost more than replacement of the bridge.
