Burlington Ia-  The fences on cascade bridge have been replaced two weeks after a man crashed his car into them and left it on the bridge.

A new chain link fence has been installed to close off the bridge, after the incident on the evening of February 15th caused the old fence to be severely damaged.

Assistant City manager Nick MacGregor told the Hawk Eye “One side of the fence was absolutely destroyed.”

MacGregor said the fence was installed Wednesday and the city has submitted an insurance claim to the driver’s insurance company for reimbursement.

The Driver of the vehicle who destroyed the old fence was cited for failure to maintain control and for striking road fixtures.
