0530caisson5
Bridge crews are nearing the completion of the support structure that will hold the new Clarks Bridge.
A major part of setting the foundation for the new Clarks Bridge in Gainesville was finished Thursday. As storm clouds gathered, the Georgia Department of Transportation poured the last of 12 caissons across what will be the 952-foot structure spanning the Chattahoochee River on Lake Lanier. Crew members directed traffic on Ga. 284/Clarks Bridge Road, as a lane closure was required for the effort.
