An Illinois Department of Transporation spokesman says the McClugage Bridge project schedule is currently being reassessed after a crane south of the construction site caught fire and collapsed Tuesday night.

The McClugage bridge is reopened after briefly closing due to a fire Tuesday afternoon.

Motorists in the Greater Peoria area will have to contend with construction work on several Illinois River bridges this summer, most notably a $24.6 million renovation of the Bob Michel Bridge.

There's new life breathing into an old idea: linking the trail systems on both sides of the Illinois River together.
