Temporary Bridge Opens On Route 12 In Barnard
Friday, 10/28/11 12:32pm
A temporary bridge has opened on Route 12 in Barnard. The opening eliminates a six-mile detour, and allows Route 12 to re-open for the 16-mile stretch between Woodstock and Bethel.
Route 12 was badly damaged by flooding from Tropical Storm Irene and has been closed since August 28th.
The temporary bridge is open to two lanes of traffic and will stay in place until a new permanent bridge can be constructed.
