A feasibility study is underway to explore options for replacing Lima’s Metcalf Street Bridge. The available information identifies the study’s subject as a possible replacement, but does not describe the alternatives being considered or indicate whether a replacement has been selected.
Details about who is conducting or sponsoring the study were not provided. The available account also does not state when the work began, when it is expected to conclude, or whether any findings have been released. No project cost, funding source, construction schedule or decision-making timeline was included.
The study is described as an exploration of options, rather than confirmation that replacement work will proceed.
