We've been working on how and where to build an interpretive station for the Van Buren Bridge. The turning mechanism and pony truss, saved from the old bridge, are waiting patiently in our maintenance yard for their new home.

Share your ideas:

Take a look at the photos and graphics on our webpage, then use our survey to help shape what the display could look like. We'd love to hear your thoughts on:

The location for the interpretive exhibit.
How to showcase the bridge's turning mechanism.
How to present the timeline and pieces of the pony truss.

After reviewing, complete our quick survey and let us know your thoughts! We'll work on incorporating your feedback into the display in a way that is safe and can be enjoyed by our community for years to come.

Share your feedback by March 2!
