Construction on the foot bridge from the Woodhaven escarpment to the Water Treatment Plant is about to begin.

Crews will start work on Monday.

The grant-funded bridge will provide personnel with uninterrupted access to the plant during major flood events.

Aside from the construction of the new bridge, the project also includes reconstruction of the pathway and landscaping restoration.

The green stairs in Woodhaven will be closed during construction.

The project is expected to be completed by the fall.
