ABOUT US
Parkersburg Memorial Bridge is a vital gateway through the Mid-Ohio Valley, linking communities, serving employment centers and emergency routes while promoting economic development.
Parkersburg Bridge Partners is committed to safe and effective maintenance of the Memorial Bridge as it assumes ownership from the City of Parkersburg. We will design, rehabilitate, own, operate and maintain the bridge to a high standard. Most importantly, we are establishing roots in Parkersburg, hiring local employees and becoming an active member of the community.
As a local subsidiary of United Bridge Partners, the complete rehabilitation project is fully funded and uses no local, state or federal funds for construction or operations.
TRAFFIC UPDATES
One lane of Memorial Bridge is open during construction.
Drivers are asked to follow the posted 25 MPH speed limit, stop at the remote traffic signals when the light is red, and only move forward when the light turns green. Keep traffic moving by driving safely and without distraction! Click here for the latest traffic alerts and progress reports on the rehabilitation.
LATEST NEWS
To provide the community with avenues to learn more about the Memorial Bridge project in a casual setting, Parkersburg Bridge Partners is hosting two open houses later this month. Community members can meet representatives of the construction, engineering and operations teams and learn more about the rehabilitation.

- Wednesday, November 30 from 5-7 p.m. in the multi-purpose room at Belpre Elementary School, 2000 Rockland Ave. in Belpre
CONSTRUCTION
Parkersburg Bridge Partners will design, rehabilitate and modernize Memorial Bridge, delivering a like-new structure for the community and traveling public to enjoy for a minimum of 50 years. To the extent possible, we will employ a union workforce and use local materials, suppliers and equipment. Important information will be communicated on a regular basis.
