Is Sutter Creek Bridge falling down? A local store owner says she’s been watching a gap in the bridge pavement grow -- after being out of town for two months, she called Sutter Creek City manager Rob Duke and told him that the gap in the pavement had widened three inches in that time. The city called an engineering firm out to perform an inspection the same day – engineers reported that there was no imminent danger posed by the widening of the gap. Duke made a presentation to Sutter Creek City Council Monday night on the repairs needed on the Main Street Bridge. Duke recommended some immediate improvements that the city could make in order to lessen the wear and tear on the bridge -- he said that step one was to fill in the potholes that have formed on the surface of the bridge, and step two was to install “traffic calming crosswalks,” or a crosswalks that function like a speed bumps, in order to minimize vibrations caused by traffic. He also said that the city needed to issue emergency contracts with the Federal Government, in order to have the bridge fixed by this summer.
