The Lake County Board of County Commissioners is holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the newly constructed Picciola Bridge, located on Picciola Road (County Road 466A) in Fruitland Park. The ceremony will take place on Monday, Jan. 23. 2012 beginning at 9:30 a.m. at the bridge.
The $4.3 million project took just over a year to complete, and included replacing the 50-year old bridge that is traveled by nearly 7,000 vehicles per day. The project was funded by a grant received through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
During the ceremony, traffic flow may be disrupted, so residents in the area could experience delays.
For more information about the ceremony, call the Lake County Public Works Department at (352) 483-9020.
