Nemo Road bridge that suffered partial collapse in July is back open

NEMO, S.D. – The Nemo Road bridge near the Pine Road intersection is officially open to traffic.

According to the Pennington County Highway Department, the bridge is back open after a partial collapse July 1 after a semi-truck drove over it.

Pennington County Highway Superintendent Joe Miller says the bridge had a failure in the superstructure, so the double ‘T’s’ were replaced. The bridge repair cost an estimated $217,000.

Meanwhile, the Nemo Road bridge about 1.25 miles west of the Norris Peak Road intersection, which was down to one lane in June, will be closed from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Thursday and Friday for repairs.
