TATE TOWNSHIP, Ohio — A Spring Grove Road bridge closure that has already run six weeks longer than planned will now stay in place for at least another week, the Clermont County Engineer’s Office said.
The road has been closed to through traffic since July 27 between addresses 3749 and 3756 so a contractor can replace Bridge No. C114-0.43, according to the engineer’s office. The bridge was originally scheduled to reopen Oct. 2.
The engineer’s office extended the closure once before, pushing the reopening date to Nov. 13 and citing logistical challenges and unexpected issues discovered during construction. In a Facebook post, the office said the road will now remain closed through Friday, Nov. 20, marking the project’s second extension this fall.
Drivers are being routed around the closure using a marked detour that runs along Bolender, Bethel-New Hope and Liming Van Thompson roads, according to the engineer’s office.
The engineer’s office has not said whether it expects further delays before the bridge reopens.
