At around 1:30 this afternoon, the Allen County Highway Department began removing signs indicating both the road and sidewalks were closed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The work includes a new reinforced concrete driving surface, new Indiana limestone handrail balusters, new drainage in the bottom of arch rings and new ornamental lighting,&#8221; said Allen County Commissioner Linda Bloom.  &#8220;We&#8217;re about a week ahead of schedule opening the bridge and it looks fantastic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The project is already being complimented by residents in the area.  &#8220;We appreciate that the Commissioners chose to restore the bridge, rather than change its original character,&#8221; said Judi Wire with the North Side Neighborhood Association.<\/p>\n<p>Pioneer Associates, Inc. will return next spring to finish work under the 310-foot structure.  During that time, some lane restrictions on the bridge may be necessary.<\/p>\n<p>The entire project &#8211; including relocation of utilities and lowering of the pavement grade under the Norfolk and Southern Railroad overpass on Coombs Street &#8211; will cost around $2.8 million.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fw-redevelopment\/70496.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Jim Irwin, Barry Real Estate, leads a tour of Redevelopment Authority and Commission members around the Parkview Field.
