The city of Hickory will receive a $1.325 million settlement in connection with the collapse of wooden arches on a pedestrian bridge in February 2022.
The arches spanned the Rudy Wright pedestrian bridge, which crosses over North Carolina 127 and is a key feature of Hickory's City Walk. The city filed suit against three companies last April for breach of contract and negligence for their work with the arches. The companies, Neill Grading and Construction Company, Inc., Dane Construction Company, and Western Wood Structure, reached the settlement with the city through mediation, according to a Hickory news release.
