Westport, Fairfield work to replace bridge over Sasco Brook

Fairfield and Westport are working to replace a bridge over Sasco Brook on the town line. Officials say there isn’t any danger to the public using the structure, but they are starting the preliminaries to replace it now because the project will take years to complete. Projected cost is about $3.2 million, with the majority paid for with state and federal grants. Hurley said bridge projects usually take 18 to 30 months for the design phase, permits and reviews. This will include at least one public informational meeting and a wetland public hearing in each town, he said. The utility work and the bid process for the contract will happen in 2023 with construction scheduled for 2024. The Town of Westport is considered the lead agency.
