Location description
This bridge on E. Gartner Road allows easy and safe access to the West Branch of the DuPage River. It is near a bike path that runs adjacent to Edgewater Drive. Water is moving, albeit slowly. Salt from the bike path and nearby roads may increase the chloride in the river in the winter.
