Replacement of the Howe Park bridges

At long last the two bridges at Howe Park are being replaced! Construction is underway. After the new bridges are placed, the contractors will have a bit of work left before the bridges are re-opened. (See below for photos of the bridge closest to the Cottage Way entrance ot the park.)

The public is invited to a ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon on Oct. 30th at Howe Park on the Cottage Way side.

Join us for the ribbon-cutting of the new Howe Park Bridges on Oct 30 at 12pm! Snacks available. More info: www.FECRPD.com.
