The Board of Dickinson County Commissioners voted to accept the low bid from King Construction Company of Heston, $2,010,953.72, for the 1900 Avenue bridge replacement. Commissioners discussed the project history, the need to replace a one-lane bridge at a busy intersection, and an itemized difference that removed hot-mix asphalt work and lowered costs by about $207,990 from the engineer's previous estimate.

A motion to approve the low bid was made and seconded on the floor; the board voted "aye" and the motion carried. The chair asked staff to notify the highway/road and bridge department to proceed with contract administration and to inform the project engineer and bidder that the award was accepted.
