Walkley Road Bridge Repairs

Walkley Road Bridge Repairs

I would like to provide residents with the following update on the the Walkley Road Bridge repairs.

Significant delays by the contractor have resulted in this project missing its November 30 completion target.  Although the quality of the work completed to date has been done to the City’s satisfaction, unfinished work will need to continue in the spring of 2016.  Compounding matters, the contractor in late November filed for bankruptcy.  I continue to work with staff to determine how the latest news will affect the outstanding work and to ensure taxpayers are not stuck with additional bills for bridge repairs.
