Thornton Overpass Project Holds Groundbreaking Ceremony for Upcoming Work

Last Friday, Mayor Greg Hansen presided over a groundbreaking for the next steps of the Thornton Overpass project. This upcoming work will include the construction of the bridge over the railroad tracks, tying the City of Ferndale together and tying Ferndale in with I-5.
Since ground had already been broken on the project, to commemorate the occasion the Mayor (along with local elected officials, contractors for this project and community partners) tied two pieces of rope together representing the east and west sides of Ferndale.
For more information about the Thornton Overpass project and access to the live webcam of the construction site, go to www.cityofferndale.org/thornton. #ThorntonOverpass
