The Government Bridge will be closed for several days both next week and the following week for repairs.

The bridge between Davenport and Arsenal Island will be closed to vehicle traffic beginning Monday at 8:30 a.m. through Wednesday at 7 p.m.

In addition, it will close once again from the morning of Wednesday, February 7th until the evening of Friday, February 9th.

The bridge will remain open both times for pedestrians 

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
