NEW HARMONY, Ind. (AP) - An effort to reopen a Wabash River bridge between Indiana and Illinois that was closed in 2012 amid safety concerns is getting a $350,000 boost from the state of Indiana.
Indiana officials announced the funding Friday for the Harmony Way Bridge, which runs between New Harmony, Indiana, and White County, Illinois.
The Evansville Courier & Press reports that while there's no timeline for reopening the span, the New Harmony-Wabash River Bridge Authority says the funding is "seed money" that represents a critical step toward repairing and reopening the bridge.
