ELDRED - A crew from the Arch Contracting Corporation of Delanson, NY, is pictured last week driving piles to accommodate a temporary bridge on County Road 11 while the existing bridge is replaced.

Sullivan County Commissioner of Public Works Peter Lilholt said the state-funded $523,000 project likely will not be completed by its initial estimated year-end date. The state only allows work over classified trout streams from June through September, he said, "and they haven't begun demolition of the old bridge yet."
