New London November 24 The Vermilion river bridge near There rises in steel arch form as a new step in engineering. The Span is part of the old Wooster Road route between Norwalk and Ashland. The new structure replaces a failed steel span that collapsed into the river after a truck refused the grade. The project includes a level run across the river and eliminates the steep curve, improving access and safety for grain traffic formerly routed via the toll bridge and later a steel span. Local residents and visitors like Mrs O Rina Crumline and the Fitch family are noted at the scene and in nearby gatherings.
