Bridge Replacement comment form: Oxford, NY

Offer your comments on the bridge replacement in Oxford New York

Your chance to be heard!

According to studies by the Chenango County Dept. of Public Works, the Main Street Bridge in Oxford Village is seriously failing and something has to be done about it right away. (It was referred to as “deficient”.) The first informational meeting, about the disposition of the bridge, was held in the Oxford Fire Station on October 17th . According to Dave Kennicutt, the Project Manager for Delta Engineers, PC, under contract with Chenango County, it is fairly certain that construction of a new bridge will be necessary. He also stressed that the collaborative input from citizens and local leaders are important elements that will determine the final design decisions.
The first phases of design work will involve compiling public comments, suggestions, concerns and ideas. Historic Theodore Burr design elements, safety guardrails, a walk-out area for observation/ceremonies, canoe/kayak launch, and decorative lighting are just some of the ideas that could be mentioned. At this time, comments can go directly to the DPW, Oxford Village Mayor and Oxford Town Supervisor
