February 4, 2008 UPDATE: Demolition of old bridge is 54% complete - Crews are working on removing debris from the implosions. The river bed has to be cleaned up within 24 hours of each implosion; crews will work on cutting up and hauling off scrap steel.
Tentative Implosion Schedule, weather permitting:
June 3 - Pier 3
June 12 - Pier 2
The demolition of the old Missouri River Bridge was awarded to Anderson Excavating and Grading Co. who submitted the low bid of $1,284,219.00. The old bridge was replaced by the Senator Christopher S. Bond Bridge, which was built just west of the old structure and the dedication ceremony was held on October 12.
The project office is located at the old firehouse in Hermann and the phone number is 573-486-0159 or you may also contact the Mexico Project Office at 573-581-8320. Although the inspectors on this project are not in the office a lot (their real "office" is out working with the contractor), they will be glad to answer your questions.
We appreciate your feedback about the web pages, our communication efforts, and project-related issues. If you would like to receive regular information about the project, please email us at customerservice3@modot.mo.gov or call 1-888-275-6636.
