Last Friday, the city of Neosho held the official ribbon cutting for the new South St. overpass. City officials expect the new road to be open sometime this week after final details are addressed. According to the Neosho Daily, what remains are "...lines need to be painted on the roadway, signage put up, grading and grass seeding done and lighting installed."
I took a few minutes on Sunday to walk the bridge and observe the overall site. Overall, I do like it. Having a bridge cross-over to avoid railroad delays will most certainly benefit me at some point. But some view the costs associated with the project (including the non-monetary costs of losing Park and Daugherty) to outweigh the benefits. Time shall tell.
