Renovation of a historic bridge near Farmington has been completed.
Engineer Tom Bennett with B.G. Consultants met with Atchison County Commissioners Monday to let them know the renovation project on the Warren truss bridge was finished.
There will be a 13 ton weight limit on the bridge first constructed in the 1930s, which was higher than before.
Bennett says funding for the project came in part from a grant.
