A release said the jade-green steel truss bridge known as the “Green Bridge” will be closed over the South Umpqua River from 5:00 p.m. Thursday until 5:00 a.m. Friday while a contractor performs inspection work.

The 327-foot bridge, which was built from 1932 to 1933, links Stewart Park to Fir Grove Park and is not to be confused with the Stewart Parkway Bridge.
