Posted: 31-Jul-2002 2:12AM CDT

The Ashland Daily Independent reports in this Nov. 4, 2001 article [Outside Link] (no longer online) that an advanced carbon based polymer coating will be used to reinforce a flawed bridge over the Little Sandy River. The bridge which had been expected to remain stable for three to four years will now be stable for 20 to 30 years.

Update Dec. 7, 2001: Here is a Cincinnati Enquirer article [Outside Link] about the bridge.
