The County of Wellington is seeking more public feedback on potential solutions for a set of bridges in poor condition. 

Four bridges that cross Conestogo River on Wellington Road 109, east of Arthur, are considered to be in poor condition. 

Due to the proximity of the four bridges, the county is undertaking an environmental assessment on all structures at once. 

“The county is considering all options to address these conditions including rehabilitation, replacement and the feasibility of a localized permanent realignment of Wellington Road 109 that would reduce the number of bridge crossings,” a press release says. 

A public information centre package is available online for input on the preferred solution to replace the bridges, evaluate design and construction options including traffic management. 

This is the second and final public engagement period planned for this study. The package can be found here and feedback can be submitted until June 24.
