September 27, 2015: My last trip across the Savanna-Sabula Bridge, before any major construction began on its replacement.
A ribbon cutting for the new US 52/IA 64 bridge over the Mississippi River, officially known as the Dale Gardner Veterans Memorial Bridge, will be at 1 PM today. That’s from saukvalley.com; there was nothing about it on the Iowa DOT’s news page.
This is the third Iowa border bridge to have “Veterans Memorial” in its name, and the first on the east side. That table will be updated once demolition of the old bridge is known.
