Lucas County commissioners on Aug. 5 authorized removing a reduced vehicle weight limit for Gibb Road Bridge No. 5 over Ten Mile Creek in Richfield Township after the old span was demolished to make way for a replacement.

Engineer Panuski, from the county engineer's office, told commissioners, "We're removing the vehicle weight limit because that bridge is no longer there. It got torn down and we're putting a new bridge in." Panuski said construction began last week and estimated, "it takes about 60 days... you're probably looking sometime in the September or early early October."

Commissioner Cabecki moved to approve the removal of the reduced weight restriction; the clerk recorded both Commissioners Cabecki and Lopez voting yes. The vote removed the temporary restriction that had applied to the crossing; no further conditions or amendments were recorded in the meeting.

There were no additional public comments or questions beyond the estimated construction timetable. The county administrator introduced the item as coming from the county engineer's office. The commissioners did not specify any changes to traffic routing or enforcement in the meeting record.

The board adjourned after completing the item; no follow-up assignment or reporting deadline was stated on the record.
