Seven Bridges Update And More News From County Supervisor Pat Jursik

Milwaukee County Supervisor Pat Jursik has published her new Enews newsletter, and it includes an update on repairs to the Seven — now actually five — Bridges.

And it doesn’t seem to signal they’ll be fixed quickly.

Check out the newsletter here. From it:

Seven Bridges trail at Grant Park continues to have two footbridges out of commission, the lakeside bridge and a small bridge, due to flooding several summers ago …

Milwaukee County currently has a consultant, Graef USA, designing the two replacement bridges. These bridge replacements pose a challenge in accessing the sites with the proper equipment and materials.

The consultant hopes to meet with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in early April to get a better understanding of limitations for access and permit requirements. The meeting should clarify the types of equipment and materials that can be used for the project and will help to determine a timeline.

I’ll keep you posted.
