Both those that live on the gravel detour and those who had to use it will appreciate that the new bridge approximately 1 mile east of Butler on H highway is now open.
The previous bridge had seriously deteriorated and was deemed dangerous. This project was part of 8 bridges in the county slated for replacement and more information can be found here http://batescountynewswire.blogspot.com/2010/08/tired-of-potholes-mdot-has-projects-in.html
