NULLTOWN BRIDGE TO REMAIN CLOSED FOR TWO YEARS
(Fayette County, IN)--Fayette County Commissioner Dale Strong gave an update on the Nulltown Bridge over the Whitewater River on Monday. That bridge has been closed since shortly after August flooding. Strong said that one of the bridge’s piers has been damaged beyond repair. Options now include removing and rebuilding two sections of the bridge or replacing the bridge entirely. A full bridge replacement is estimated to cost between $10 and $12 million. Whichever option is taken, the estimate now is that it will take two years to complete. The Nulltown Bridge is the only bridge across the river in the 11-mile stretch between Connersville and Laurel.
