Century-Old Bridge Changes Could Be Big Shift For Placerville

PLACERVILLE (CBS13) — A century-old bridge in danger of a teardown. The city of Placerville says it isn’t safe and needs to be rebuilt.
But locals tied to the city’s historic charm say updating the Clay Street Bridge would be detrimental to their community.
“It’s the most radical change that’s happened to the historic landscape of this town since Highway 50 came through in the 1950s,” said Kirk Smith, with the Placerville Historic Preservation League.
