Delays on a stretch of U.S. 70 in DeKalb County will continue until bridge repair is complete.
TDOT began work on the South College Street Bridge last week. TDOT spokesman Jennifer Flynn said the work will be complete by October.
To complete the work, there’s lane closures on U.S. 70 under the bridge. One lane will remain open at all times.
The bridge has been closed since June 2016 when a county landfill truck hit it and caused major damage. Three vehicles have hit the bridge in the last 14 months.
