The next bridge replacement project included in the Northwest Bridge Bundle project is scheduled to begin soon. The Putnam County Route M bridge over Medicine Creek Fork, located near Powersville, will close beginning Monday, Sept. 9. The project to replace the bridge is expected to continue through mid-January 2025. During construction, motorists should seek an alternate route around the closure. The Medicine Creek Fork Bridge was built in 1953 and has a traffic volume of approximately 53 vehicles per day.
