We
began our search online. Finding the January 11, 2011 minutes of the Trumbull
Board of County Commissioners,
we learned that a motion was made and approved for the “replacement of
structure Newton Falls-Bailey Road over Duck Creek--reconstruction of approach
including ditches, storm sewers, driveway and traffic control, lying within
Trumbull County . . .” A side note was
included in the motion stating: “This project is being funded by a federal
grant. The local share is currently estimated
at $174,240.00, which is to be funded by an OPWC grant. Estimated amount will
be adjusted when actual costs are determined--absolutely no County General Revenue
Funds will be utilized.”
Our
patron now knew where the construction was to take place, but we still needed
to know when. The Ohio Department of
Transportation has available online a pamphlet titled Proposed Highway Improvements forContract Letting dated February 23, 2012.
It was “issued solely for the purpose of circulating advance information pertaining
to proposed Highway improvements.” Pages
137-140 details what work is to be done and what materials are needed for the Duck
Creek Bridge project. While no starting date is listed in the pamphlet, the
date set for completion is September 30, 2012. At this time we were unable to
find a starting date.
