CHESTER, IL-  (Jasmine Adams, KFVS-TV.  Please click on the link above for the full story.  Here is an excerpt below.)

In the market for a bridge? The Route 51 Chester Bridge over the Mississippi River is available for relocation and reuse. It spans from Perry County, Mo., to Randolph County, Ill.

Proposals for the bridge must be submitted by December 31, 2018, to the Missouri Department of Transportation’s Historic Preservation Section.

If MoDOT and IDOT proceed with rehabilitation instead of replacement, the Chester Bridge will not be available for donation.
