Clintonville residents are voicing concern over an area bridge renovation. The ODOT is planning a major six-month renovation of the bridge on Indianola Ave. (near Arcadia over the Glen Echo Ravine), and while it’s in need of repairs, locals are worried that the ODOT won’t take into consideration the bridge’s historical significance. The bridge was built in 1914 and is on the national register of historic places. It also boasts a mural that covers the arch and opens onto the ravine and park. The ODOT says they intend to preserve the bridge’s historical character. And with plans for the renovation still being finalized, construction isn’t expected to start until summer 2016. (deb)
