The city of Auburn has applied for funding under the state's BridgeNY program in hopes of continuing to make repairs to aging bridges and culverts in the city.

The state has increased the program to $200 million a year in its most recent five year Capital Plan.

Auburn City Clerk Chuck Mason says in recent years, the city has completed work on the State St. and North Division St. bridges. He tells us what bridges are on the drawing board for future work.

 

Mason says if the BridgeNY application is approved, design work on the projects will begin 2023 and will take a few years to finish.
