ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – A project to replace the 88-year-old Lewis Creek Bridge on Linn County Route 139, approximately 1 mile north of Meadville, has been postponed due to weather. This is the third bridge scheduled to be replaced under the Fixing Access to Rural Missouri (FARM) Bridge Program. The contractor faced several weather-related delays, which has pushed back the completion of the Smokey Branch Bridge on Linn County Route B, thereby delaying the start of the replacement of the Lewis Creek Bridge.
Four bridges in Linn County are included in the FARM Bridge Program. The full list of bridges to be replaced can be found on the FARM Bridge Program web page.
