BELLEVUE, NE — The City of Bellevue is moving closer to a long-term solution for the aging Fort Crook Road bridge corridor. During a recent public open-house, city officials and engineers presented three primary reconstruction alternatives for the vital link spanning Papillion Creek and the Union Pacific Railroad.
The meeting is a key part of the ongoing Planning and Environmental Linkage (PEL) Study, conducted in coordination with the Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT). The study’s goal is to identify transportation needs and position Bellevue to compete for critical federal funding.
“The goals are to restore southbound connectivity, improve safety and reliability, and bring the bridges up to current standards,” project engineer Jay Fallick with JEO Consulting Group told attendees.
