A bridge replacement project will force some Findlay drivers to take a detour for several months.

The Hancock County Engineer’s Office says the Olive Street Bridge over Eagle Creek in Findlay is being replaced to meet current bridge standards.

The bridge is on Olive Street (Marion Township Road 204) between Park Street and Marion Township Road 201.

The project will begin on Monday, March 21st and last until approximately September 11th.

Olive Street will be closed between Park Street and Marion Township 201 while the bridge is constructed and residents are encouraged to use local streets to detour the area.

The Hancock County Engineer’s Office maintains 358 miles of county roads and 372 bridges throughout Hancock County.
