The construction of a new bridge in Shelby County is a feat of impressive driving.

An old bridge on CR 500 North between 700E and 775 E is being replaced by a new structure. 

County Commissioner Chris Ross says the delivery of the 125-foot long concrete beams to the bridge site was something to see.

From that point, it was a just a few hours before the beams were in place.

Ross says the new structure will give area drivers safer, wider and more convenient travel across Little Blue River on the Shelby – Rush county line.
