County officials honored a former Delaware County Engineer today by dedicating the Home Road Bridge over the Scioto River as the Fred L. Stults Bridge. Stults served as County Engineer for 27 years before retiring in 1996. He and his wife Nancy still live in Concord Township, less than two miles from the bridge that now bears his name.
In recommending the honor to the Commissioners, Engineer Chris Bauserman said that many of the projects currently underway are a direct result of Stults’s strategic planning for the future of the county’s roadway system. In fact, his vision and diligence led to an intergovernmental agreement between Columbus and Delaware County that secured the necessary funding for the 2003 replacement of the bridge.
A packed hearing room gave Stults a standing ovation after his remarks to the Commissioners, during which he recalled negotiations over the future of the bridge, which is now more than five times as long as the original 200-foot bridge in place prior to the creation of the O’Shaughnessy Reservoir.
