BRIDGE UP FOR AUCTION

Wanna buy a bridge? Seriously! The landmark Roche de Boeuf (Interurban) Bridge is being offered for sale by O.D.O.T. It is a little battered and run down but could be purchased really cheap. The notice was in last week’s Mirror newspaper in case you missed it, but the original notice was released last January. The notice says that O.D.O.T will offer by public auction certain tracts of excess land located in Wood and Lucas County on Wednesday, June 30, 2021 at 10:00 AM at the Maumee Rotary Pavilion at Side Cut Metropark, 1025 W. River Road, Maumee, Ohio. The pavilion opens at 9AM. The terms of sale and formal description of the property can be viewed in the Mirror or on the ODOT website: www.transportation.ohio.gov. If unable to find it here just google “Roche de Boeuf Bridge for sale”. PLEASE read all of the details in the documents. The owner assumes all responsibility for all aspects of the property. Oh yes, remember that if no one buy the bridge O.D.O.T. will have it demolished.
