The Menomonee Falls Pedestrian Bridges project replaced two deteriorated pedestrian bridges in separate community parks. After the Village closed the aging structures over a year ago for safety reasons, restoring access for park users became a top priority. The project delivered two new pre-fabricated pedestrian bridges and minor roadway improvements, reopening long-awaited connectivity across local waterways.
