Publisher's Notebook

The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors voted this week to demolish the Goose Creek Bridge, erected in 1932.

The board voted 8-1 to tear down the metal span after determining it lacked enough historical value to preserve. Vehicular traffic over the bridge stopped in the 1980s when a different, bigger bridge was built.

The Loudoun Times wins Headline of the Day honors for their head on the story: “Loudoun bridge is falling down”
