Leman's Flat Bridge Project Faces Land and Pile Issues
At December council meeting, a new traffic bridge from Church Street to Leman's Flint was favored to replace an unsafe 65 year old span. Costs rose after six piles were incorrectly driven on land owned by W. Sellick, prompting debate over using the old bridge as a staging site to save money. Engineers differed on pile suitability, with Dr. Wilson endorsing the old site and council ultimately opting to erect the traffic bridge on the old site while ensuring Sellick’s consent.
