The St. Clair County Road Commission says a bridge over the Belle River in Casco Township has opened. Palms Road between St. Clair Hwy and Division Road opened Wednesday following a lengthy bridge rehabilitation project. Work included removing the existing bridge superstructure, road approach, guardrails, and installing new steel beams with a concrete deck. The project was funded by the State of Michigan’s Bridge Bundling Program and the Federal Highway Administration at a cost of $2.5 million.
However as one bridge opens another one closes. The road commission is also announcing that another bridge on Palms Road in Cacso Township will close next week for waterproofing. Palms between Springborn and Marine City Highway will close to through traffic between Monday October 3rd and Friday the 7th.
