FAIRMONT —
The Fourth Street Bridge is open.
Motorists wanting to cross between Fairmont Avenue and Locust Avenue no longer have to search for creative shortcuts to avoid the enormous hill on Seventh Street or a plethora of stoplights.
“I am very pleased that it is once again open,” said Councilman Chuck Warner, who took a trip across the bridge a few hours after it opened on Thursday morning.
“The bridge has been inspected and is deemed safe for travel. With the bridge open, it will be more convenient for motorists to cross town.”
