The Franklin County Highway Department received word on Sept. 17 that the Tennessee Department of Transportation has awarded the contract to construct a bridge on Leon Stephens Lane, over Crow Creek in Sherwood. The contract was awarded to Concrete Structures, Inc., which had the low bid of $896,274. The low bid, plus 10 percent for engineering and contingencies, is based on the estimated construction cost; the total is $985,902.
According to Joe David McBee, County Road Commissioner for this area, the construction of the bridge is expected to be finished by September 2015.
For the duration of the construction the bridge inspection team will work with State District maintenance or local highway maintenance officials to establish any necessary detour route.
