MESA Q-6.8 Bridge Rehabilitation Project Phase II approved

December 15, 2023

The MESA Q-6.8 Bridge Rehabilitation Project, located on Highway 6 and 50 near the Utah border, will move forward with Phase II of the project as it got the stamp of approval from the Board of Mesa County Commissioners during the administrative public hearing on Dec. 12.

Phase I of the project, which assessed the necessary repairs required for the bridge, is now complete. The first phase laid the groundwork for bringing the bridge up to current standards and ensuring efficiency for all who traverse it. 

The selected contractor will begin Phase II, which will entail a final design and the development of detailed documents to guide the construction of the bridge enhancements. Environmental and historical factors are considered during this project phase to preserve the essence of our community while moving ahead with essential improvements.

Stay tuned as the MESA Q-6.8 Bridge Rehabilitation Project gets closer to completion.
