Patent Rd. Culvert Replacement Underway
By John T. Ryan
Peru – Luck Brothers Inc. personnel are working on the Patent Rd. culvert today. An excavator is making room for precast concrete footers. Next week the precast culvert should be delivered and installed. A large highway sink hole developed last April making the repairs necessary.
On September 23, 2019 the Peru Town Board awarded the contract to the low bidder Luck Brothers at $120,480. The job includes excavation, installation of a new open bottom culvert, restoration of site, and paving.
The Town purchased the culvert at a cost of $143,500. Total cost: $263,980 not including the temporary repairs already performed.
