Sage Creek bridge concrete deck pour scheduled Thursday morning between Lovell and Cowley

No traffic delays are expected Thursday during the concrete bridge deck pour over Sage Creek on U.S. 310/Wyoming 789 between Lovell and Cowley in northwest Wyoming.

"We are expecting to pour about 190 cubic yards of concrete beginning at 6 a.m. Thursday. The concrete work will involve the entire bridge deck over Sage Creek," according to Wyoming Department of Transportation resident engineer Michael Miller of Basin. "We expect the concrete pour to take about four hours to complete."

The $11.7 million Sage Creek highway and bridge improvement project consists of road widening, bridge widening over the Shoshone River, replacement of the Sage Creek and railroad bridges, asphalt paving, and other work.

Miller said work is continuing throughout the Big Horn County project, and drivers should expect traffic delays throughout the project.

Prime contractor is S&S Builders, LLC, of Gillette. Contract completion date is June 30, 2019.
