Money from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation will be coming to Manitowoc for bridge repairs.
$2.1 million from the DOT will help maintain Wisconsin’s nine lift bridges along Lake Michigan including the 8th Street and 10th Street bridges in the Clipper City.
The 8th Street bridge is getting $173,424 while the 10th Street bridge gets $26,202 for repairs and maintenance.
Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers says, “These grants will help maintain our bridges and ensure our ports are secure and reliable, all while strengthening Wisconsin ports that generate thousands of family-supporting jobs, support our industries from agriculture to tourism, and help our businesses reach markets worldwide.”
Other eastern Wisconsin cities getting funding include the Main Street bridge in Green Bay while the rest of the money goes toward bridges in Milwaukee and Racine.
