Joe W. Brown Park bridge construction over North Lagoon approximately 15 percent complete

Boh Bros. Construction Co., LLC has completed installing the bridge base over the North Lagoon at Joe W. Brown Memorial Park. The pre-fabricated bridge was delivered on July 25.

Visitors can continue to recreate in the park while the existing bridge is being replaced.   The $1.2M project will be concluded by the end of August 2017.

The bridge is the first part of a larger investment in the Park’s infrastructure. In addition to the bridge construction, the Capital Improvement Program will invest another $1.4M in the park. Patrons are reminded to use caution when walking, driving or biking near active construction sites.
