MANSFIELD An ODOT bridge replacement project will take place on Ohio 39 (Mulberry Street) in Mansfield, according to a press release issued by the Ohio Department of Transportation.
The existing bridge will be replaced with a 54-foot wide, single-span bridge with concrete parapets and with twin steel tubing and 6-foot wide sidewalk on both sides.
The bridge project will impact approximately 194-feet of Touby Run to replace this bridge. Approximately 0.09 acres of suitable wooded habitat for listed bat species will be removed for this project. To avoid impacts to listed bat species during summer roosting, all trees will be removed between Oct. 1 and March 31.
