The city of Struthers is looking to replace the bridge over Wetmore Drive over Yellow Creek, which is looking to partially replace some of the stone culvert, the road on each side of the bridge, sidewalks, curb installations, storm sewer drainage system improvements, and installment of a new decorative bridge railing.

Construction on the project is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2024.

During construction, Wetmore Drive at the bridge site will be closed to traffic for up to 150 consecutive days. Once the project is approved, the detour will utilize Center Street, Lowellville Road, S. Bridge Street, and Poland Avenue.

Construction updates will be posted within the project limits and on the city of Struthers webpage.
