Jackson 71 Bridge Replacement



Jackson, MN (KICD)--The Minnesota DOT plans to put in a new bridge on Highway 71 in Jackson.

Project Manager Chris Bower tells KICD News that the bridge over the Des Moines River is slated for construction in 2015.

The bridge was originally built in 1954 and features pin and hangar joints, which Bower says they call fracture critical joints.

The new bridge will pretty much match the footprint of the current one, but there will be some changes to the lane configuration as they go from a 4-lane to 3-lane setup.

The project cost estimate checks in at $6 million.
