Shields Street Bridge Replacement

The City of Fort Collins completed the replacement of a structurally deficient bridge on Shields Street just south of Rolland Moore Park in June 2013. This bridge had the second lowest sufficiency rating of all the bridges inspected within the city. Thank you for your patience during all phases of this project.
