Bridge Update!

Screenshot 2023-01-25 172457

Construction has began and is forecasted to finalize around January 2024. 

Local contractors have been involved in the project for several months, working with structural engineers to discuss the means and methods by which the project can be completed.  It has been determined that the best strategy is to dismantle the existing bridge and rebuild it with structural reinforcements close to its current site. 

Powhatan County Parks and Recreation is looking forward to planning fun activities to celebrate the grand re-opening! Stay tuned.
