It’s only mid-April, but the construction program at Goodhue County Public Works is already busy.
Last fall, the county awarded a rehabilitation project for the historic Third Street bridge in Cannon Falls. This truss bridge is over 100 years old, the timber deck is worn out and needs to be replaced, one of the concrete abutments needs to be modified so the deck can expand and contract with the temperatures, many of its components have rusted (some severely) over the years, and the paint system has failed.
