Summit County Council and the Summit County Executive has already approved the construction contract to rehabilitate the bridge. Kenmore Construction is the contractor on the $645,000.00 project. The contract has a June 30, 2024, completion date but due to the need to close the bridge sooner than anticipated, the Summit County Engineer’s office has asked the contractor to expedite the construction of the bridge as much as possible.
