Construction of the bridge on Schoeman Rd crossing the Kansas River, often referred to as the Belvue Bridge, is off to a strong start.

Nearly 75 percent of the deck has been removed, and the steel is in good condition other than a five foot area of corrosion that will need to be replaced. The area in question will add an estimated $10,558 to the project. Two stringers and splices showing extensive corrosion will be replaced.

Public Works Administrator Tim Eisenbarth informed the commission of the change order at Monday’s meeting.
