Snake River Bridge replacement subject of public meeting

The Wyoming Department of Transportation has developed plans to replace the Snake River Bridge and improve the intersection of Wyoming 22 and Wyoming 390.

The bridge and intersection project development was outlined in WYDOT’s Planning and Environmental Linkage study for the two highways, connecting the Town of Jackson with the Jackson Hole Ski Resort at Teton Village and the community of Wilson. That study began in 2012 as a cooperative effort with the Federal Highway Administration, Teton County, and the Town of Jackson.

According to WYDOT, the study considers environmental, community, and economic goals to analyze transportation decisions.

The public meeting is scheduled from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday at the Spring Hill Suites Conference Room at 150 W. Simpson Avenue, in Jackson.

It will begin with a short presentation at 5:15 p.m., followed by an open house format for questions.
