On Monday, October 26, 2015 at 5:30 p.m., the Village of Montgomery will hold a ribbon cutting ceremony for the newly renovated Mill Street Bridge to mark the official completion of the project. The bridge had been closed to traffic for approximately two months while the work took place.
In July the Village Board had approved a contract for Phase II (Design) and Phase III (Construction) Engineering Services for substructure repairs, deck scarification and overlay for the existing Mill Street Bridge over the Fox River. A contract for the Mill Street Bridge construction was awarded to MYS Incorporated in the amount of $431,753.00.
Construction improvements were funded by the new 1% sales tax for infrastructure improvements that was approved by voters in 2014 and which began to be collected on July 1, 2015. This is the first infrastructure project to be completed in the Village using the new sales tax revenues.
