(Switzerland County, Ind.) – Construction signs have been placed in advance of a bridge replacement project in Switzerland County.

The Indiana Department of Transportation has contracted Milestone to complete the $3.6 million project at the Tucker Run structure on State Road 56, just six miles west of State Road 129.
