Less Bridge Damage Seen After Flood in Franklin County
Franklin County Engineer Fred Gardner said eastern flood damage to roads and bridges was not as severe as feared. The worst damage noted is a river bridge south of Rantoul where debris under a plank lodged. He estimates 75 000 to 100 000 dollars for repairs, not including four new spans needed for washed out bridges. County commissioners, weighing a disaster declaration for federal aid, also consider bond financing for reconstruction.
