Nearly one year ago, a dump truck hit the Pedro Romero Pedestrian Bridge, causing it to collapse. This left many children and seniors without a safe crossing.
After a dump truck crashed into the pedestrian bridge on Castroville Road earlier this year, the Westwood Square Neighborhood Association is working with the city to construct a permanent crosswalk instead of repairing the old bridge.
It unfolded along the 1800 block of Castroville Road, north of Highway 90. The area was blocked off to traffic for about nine hours amid cleanup efforts.
