Liberty Road Bridge Collaboration

In July of 2007, as a result of a routine inspection, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) was required to close the Liberty Road Short-Span Bridge in Lima Township due to severe deterioration and structural failure of the abutments. With the continued decrease in road funding, the WCRC was faced with a difficult decision of leaving this bridge closed or taking money out of reserves.

“Our agency has invested a great deal of time and effort into fostering good working relationships with various agencies; joining efforts with Lenawee County on this bridge project is another example of cooperation that has saved us additional dollars”. stated Steve Puuri, Road Commission Managing Director.
