Saturday Superintendent Talks
These events will be held every third Saturday of the month at 9 a.m., March to October, through the completion of the Rocheport Bridge project. Come see and hear more about the progress being made on the bridge from the project team. Each talk will highlight a segment of work currently taking place, why that work is necessary to the project, and will include a question-and-answer session!
