Another Otoe County bridge was broken down by a heavy piece of machinery Friday night.
The gravel road east of Douglas was closed Saturday after a 15-ton bulldozer went through the five-ton span seven miles east of the town. The machine was owned by the Franz Construction Co. of Douglas.
This makes two or three county bridges broken by heavy machinery this year.
Nebraska City had a bridge closed for two months after a tractor went through it and the state lost a bridge near Talmage when a dragline broke it down.
