OXFORD – The Village of Oxford is taking the first steps towards replacing its truss bridge, which has been in use for nearly 53 years.

The subsoil analysis was completed by ATL and it recommends the use of mini-piles for the foundation based on the presence of several boulders in the soil, said Project Manager David L. Kennicutt. Kennicutt works for Delta Engineers, who have been evaluating the condition of the current bridge and will be responsible for the technical supervision of construction of a new one.
