Due to the forecasted extreme heat and dangerously high heat index values expected this week, the cement pour for the Trevose Road Bridge will begin at 4 AM on Wednesday, July 1 & Thursday, July 2. This temporary schedule change is being implemented to help protect the work crew as well as protect the curing of the cement. This cement pour will keep the vendor on track to have the bridge reopen by Monday, July 20th.
