Hardin County's bridge #10401, commonly referred to as the Lawn Hill Bridge, is a 185' long by 24' wide continuous I-beam bridge. It currently is safe for one truck only traffic and the deck is failing. Hardin County will be improving the bridge and let a Reconstuction/Bridge Widening project for bid on September 16th, 2008.  Peterson Contractors, Inc. (PCI) out of Reinbeck, Iowa, was the successful bidder with a contract of  $379,084.68.

PCI started work on Monday, March 16th, 2009. The estimated completion date is early May 2009. The project consists of removing the existing deck, rehabilitating the existing beams and constructing a new deck that is four feet wider than the existing one. New guardrail and approach pavement will also be installed.
