Hutchins Bridge Finished - October 29
WGN 45-06-07
October 29, 2009 - It's Thursday, cloudy and threatening rain, the final day of the project. The last of the heavy equipment is moving out after completing the installation of new guard rails, leaving Alpine people to smooth the ground around the new posts.
Now,the newly renovated bridge stands clean behind park-like landscaping, ready for the first passage of the visiting public—myself.
