Batavia, NY – The Fargo Road Bridge Replacement Project is set to commence on August 14th, 2023,
bringing essential improvements to the bridge located over Black Creek near Route 63 and Little Canada
Extension.
The current 11-foot-wide jack arch bridge will be replaced with a modern 28-foot precast concrete arch
bridge to meet hydraulic capacity requirements. This upgrade is crucial for maintaining smooth truck
routes, as Fargo Road serves as a super load route within the County.
The project is locally funded, with Ravi Engineering in Rochester leading as the Engineer and LC Whitford
as the Contractor. Construction is planned to continue diligently until the end of November.
Fargo Road will be closed during the construction period for the safety of motorists and construction
workers. However, a well-marked detour will be in place to guide motorists and trucks efficiently.
