A Wheeling official says the city’s historic suspension bridge could be closed for up to two years for a lighting and wiring project.
City Manager Robert Herron says the $8.5 million project includes significant rewiring of the Wheeling Suspension Bridge.
The Intelligencer and Wheeling News Register reports that Herron discussed the project during a City Council meeting this week.
He said the state Division of Highways also plans a $2.5 million paving project in Wheeling.
Both projects are scheduled this year but Herron didn’t give specific start dates.
The suspension bridge was built in 1860. It replaced a suspension bridge built in 1849 that was damaged by a storm in 1854.
