UPDATE: Jefferson, Cass Bridge Closings Canceled
IDOT needs to close each for one day in order to do survey and inspection work, officials said. But the closings have been canceled, at least temporarily.
If you use Jefferson Street to get to or through downtown Joliet or Cass Street to head to the West Side, this story is for you.
The Illinois Department of Transportation will be closing the Cass Street bridge over the Des Plaines River to do survey and inspection work. And it will be doing the same thing from on the Jefferson Street bridge.
But the bridge closings, originally scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, have been canceled, according to a Sun-Times News Group report. Both closings will be rescheduled.
