Mannington said it has the funding it will need to replace its historic Clarksburg Street Bridge.

The Bridge Committee met Monday night to approve the second reading of an ordinance to provide funding for the project.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has agreed to loan the Mannington Building Commission $203,000.

Mayor Robert Garcia said the Bridge Committee will hold a public meeting in two weeks so residents can come to discuss the project.
