This is a press release from Caltrans:
Caltrans once again invites community members to participate in an informational meeting on March 19 to discuss the future of Fernbridge and Ferndale access along Route 211. Presenters will provide updates on emergency repairs to Fernbridge following a December 2022 earthquake, as well as information about ongoing efforts to collaborate on visions for future access in and out of Ferndale.
Fernbridge, a 1,320-foot-long concrete arch bridge spanning the Eel River, has been in operation since 1911. Due to its age and susceptibility to ongoing repairs and closures, Caltrans has initiated a project to review and develop alternatives for future access in and out of Ferndale.
Regular updates on these topics are posted on Caltrans District 1 social media accounts and electronic road signs at either end of Fernbridge. Weekly updates are also available on the Caltrans District 1 Road Information Bulletin at tinyurl.com/caltransD1rib.
For more information about efforts on Ferndale access, visit ferndaleaccess.org.
Meeting Details:
March 19
5:30 to 7 p.m.
Ferndale City Hall, 834 Main St, Ferndale
