Daniel Zuckerman is reporting for Columbia-Greene Media the Greene County Legislature Public Works Committee approved two resolutions Mon., Sep. 11, to accept formal proposals for the design, construction and inspection services for two county bridge projects. Replacement of the superstructure, bridge and guiderail design and limited pavement improvements are needed on both the South Road Bridge over Glen Brook in Cairo, and the Hervey Street Bridge over Thorpe Creek in Durham. The Hervey Street Bridge requires repairs to the substructure, while the South Street Bridge needs a substructure replacement. Engineering service contracts for both projects will be awarded by September 20. Construction on the bridges is expected to start in June 2018, and be completed in four months. The engineering design work for the Cairo bridge will be done by Latham-based Clark Patterson Lee Design Professionals. The Albany-based firm of Barton and Loguidice is working on the Durham bridge, Greene County Administrator Shaun Groden said. The resolutions passed on Monday will now go to the Finance Committee and then on to the full legislature for approval next week, Groden said. Read the full story at HudsonValley360 [dot] com.
