Mayor Jon Mitchell and previous Mayors have often called for a "new" New Bedford-Fairhaven bridge.

At the urging of Mayor Mitchell, the Mass. Department of Transportation began a study last year, and next month the D-O-T will be unveiling a list of both short and long-term alternatives to the nearly 100 year old span.

The study group has scheduled a public meeting for Wednesday, February 11th, 6-8pm at the Seaport Inn and Marina in Fairhaven.

A spokesperson for the Mayor says Mitchell will attend the February 11th meeting.
