Delay in Bridge Control System Revisions
The semi automatic traffic control system for the Mississippi River bridge is delayed as Eagle Signal revises plans and specs. Heavier trucks have used the bridge since early year, requiring a 24 hour guard at the Illinois end and a portcullis-like lot-house. Lowa to Vinais trucks have priority to prevent backlog on Walnut Street. Bridge engineering was by Modjeski and Masters of Harrisburg, with initial plans for a semi automatic system.
