December 6, 2016
The new bridge across the Green River on Hwy 351 was open to traffic on Saturday, Dec. 3rd. Construction crews have started to remove the temporary crossing bridge travelers used to cross while construction was ongoing. The new bridge is wider and will give more clearance for wider loads to pass by. There have been a number of bad accidents on this bridge in the past ten years. CC&G Inc. of Lander had the contract to replace the WYO 351 bridge, which is about seven miles east of Big Piney, Wyoming. The bridge replacement contract was for $4.3 million and work was to be completed by October 31, 2017.
