5/27/22 Oshkosh Bridge Closure

27 May 2022 News


The Oregon/Jackson Street Bridge in Oshkosh is closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic until further notice. Thursday afternoon the bridge was in a lowered position and was also closed to marine traffic. The closure is due to worn gear teeth components that were discovered while a routine bridge inspection was conducted Wednesday. The state’s Department of Transportation bridge engineers developed plans to raise one leaf of the bridge to the upright position and secure the lift span. That will allow marine traffic to pass while the bridge is closed to vehicles and pedestrians. Vehicles can use the Main Street Bridge or the Wisconsin Street Bridge while the bridge is in the upright position. (City of Oshkosh photo)
