Hassle Over Busted Bridge In Appanoose County
County commissioners wrestle with the North Appanoose Creek bridge damage after a gravel truck struck and collapsed it on September 3. The old structure was salvaged and a temporary bypass built at an estimated cost of 14 000 to 15 000 dollars. An insurance offer of 2 500 dollars was discussed, with Cecil Vining noting they cannot know the value of a new bridge and may be foolish to refuse.
