COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – After getting turned down last year, the City of Coldwater is trying once again to get a Michigan Department of Transportation grant to help repair the South Clay Street bridge over the Sauk River.
The Coldwater City Council approved a resolution Monday night in support of MDOT’s local bridge program for the bridge repair project. The application is for the 2022 construction season. Project engineering will be part of the city’s 2020-2021 fiscal year budget.
City Manager Keith Baker said the city would be responsible for a ten percent match which would come out to just over $18,000.
An inspection has found that the South Clay Street Bridge is in deteriorating condition. MDOT’s share would come out to about $344,000.
