S.R. 138 Bridge Replacement Set To Begin
S.R. 134 bridge replacement project resumes next week
Chillicothe
(Tuesday, July
3, 2018) – A bridge replacement project will get under way on state Route 138
in Highland County this week, with a closure of the route will go into effect after
the July 4th holiday.
On
Thursday, July 5, S.R. 138 will be closed between Township Road 360B (McWilliams
Road) and S.R. 753, approximately one mile west of Greenfield, for contractors
to replace the structure over Duncan Run. The closure is scheduled to be in
effect for up to 30 days, and while the route is closed, motorists will be
detoured by way of S.R. 28 and S.R. 771; a local detour will also be
established.
Foill,
Incorporated was awarded a contract for $379,013 to replace the structure, and
all work is scheduled to be completed by late August.

In a
separate project, S.R. 134 will be closed Monday, July 9, between T.R. 119B (Kier
Road) and T.R. 120 (Crampton Road), approximately 1.5 miles south of Lynchburg,
for the second phase of a bridge and culvert replacement project.
The closure will be in effect for approximately 90
days while the contractors replace the bridge over Dodson Creek, and while S.R.
134 is closed, motorists will be detoured by way of U.S. 50 at Dodsonville and
S.R. 135 at Allensburg.
Crews from Sunesis Construction have already replaced
the culvert over Anthony Run, between Kier Road and T.R. 120B (Anderson Road). This
first of the project was completed in mid-June, and the second phase is
anticipated to be completed in mid-fall.
