The Baskins Creek Bridge was originally constructed in 1903 as a railroad trestle bridge. It was converted to a pedestrian bridge in 1999 as part of the Rolling Prairie Trail. Portions of the wooden structure are deteriorated to a condition that will not longer support heavier weights.
The bridge is off of Hilton Ave and 25th Street and is one of 8 bridges part of the 7-miles of trails in Waverly.
Construction of the new trail bridge will start after the demolition andclean-up are complete. The construction is estimated to take up to 15 weeks. Watch the
