BELLOWS FALLS â Rockingham and Bellows Falls turned their collective eyes Tuesday night to Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., with hopes of securing an $11 million federal budget earmark to pay for the repairs for the closed Vilas Bridge.
The Rockingham Select Board and the Bellows Falls Village Board of Trustees, meeting in joint session, each approved separate resolutions to Welch, formally requesting the earmark, or âcommunity projectâ as they are being called. The deadline for such requests is in early April.
The town and village are hoping that the renewed federal funding program, and the emphasis by the new Biden administration on repairing the nationâs infrastructure, means that there will finally be some action on the bridge, which was closed by the state of New Hampshire 12 years ago because of the bridgeâs deteriorating condition.

SAULT STE. MARIE The Poe Lock is slated to open for the navigation season again at noon on March 24, 12 hours earlier this year.
This is the first time in history the Soo Locks has had an early reopening said Kevin Sprague, Soo Area Office area engineer. According to Carrie Fox, public affairs specialist at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, this earlier opening time was requested by the shipping industry to ensure adequate supply of raw materials that are available for their customers.
The Army Corps anticipates a busy shipping season ahead. As far as shipping expectations for the year, the Army Corps are ready to accommodate shipping schedules with 24-hour operations.
