HANNIBAL - The public is invited to view alternate locations being considered for a new Route 47 Bridge at Washington during a public meeting on Thursday, November 20 from 4:30 until 6:30 p.m. at St. John's Mercy Hospital in the Tucker Room on 2nd floor. There is no formal presentation planned, and guests can come anytime within the two hours to look at the displays and ask questions.
