Notes from Supervisor Provost:

The boxed area in the Aerial of CTH WW Bridge shows the part of the road that will be replaced (W330’ and E250’).

2024 design and 2025 build. Everything is preliminary at this point so changes can be expected.

Estimated 3 month road closure

Due to trout stream required time-out periods, this would have to start in June of 2025.

Water quality will be protected by standard BMP’s used for bridge replacements

DATCP will also be involved in the review due to being in the jurisdiction of the Portage County Drainage District
