FAIRFIELD — Fairfield and Westport are working to replace a bridge over Sasco Brook on the town line.
Officials say there isn’t any danger to the public using the structure, but they are starting the preliminaries to replace it now because the project will take years to complete.
Projected cost is about $3.2 million, with the majority paid for with state and federal grants.
“The bridge is listed in poor condition,” said William Hurley, Fairfield’s engineering manager. “Since it may take several years to prepare, design and construct a bridge, the state and towns are being proactive in designing the bridge at this time.”
