A $1.423 million project to replace the bridge over the Tonawanda Creek on Stroh Road in Alexander was completed yesterday and the bridge was opened to traffic.
The bridge has been closed since early May.
Contractor L.C. Whitford Co. Inc., of Wellsville, rebuilt the bridge.
It took a giant crane this morning to hoist into place giant beams for the new bridge being built over the Tonawanda Creek in Alexander.
The new span is on Stroh Road.
