More state funds needed to maintain bridges

August 17, 2007 By WRN Contributor

County highway departments are hoping to reassure motorists about the safety of bridges. They're also asking state lawmakers for sufficient money for maintenance and inspection of bridges in Wisconsin.

Dan Fedderly of the Wisconsin County Highway Association says they want to be diligent about maintaining bridges, but need the proper funding to make sure that happens.

The issue continues to get close scrutiny just two weeks after a deadly bridge collapse in Minneapolis.
