Possible designs for a replacement bridge
in Hastings go on display Tuesday.


      The Hastings Bridge is one of the lowest-rated river crossings
in the Twin Cities region. It is due to be rebuilt in the next few
years. State transportation officials hope to begin construction by
fall of 2010.


      The department is holding an open house in Hastings where people
can look at four designs.


      The Hastings bridge over the Mississippi River is one of 11
major highway and freeway spans in Minnesota that are due for
replacement over the next decade.


      There is money for the bridge repair goal in the transportation
bill the Legislature approved this year over Gov. Tim Pawlenty's
veto.
