The downtown revitalization project which includes new streets, sidewalks, curbs and lighting for the Town of Bremen has been postponed.
Bremen Director of Operations Trend Weldy said the delay could be to the town’s advantage.
“With help from INDOT, they’re going to pay for a few more things that’s going to save us some extra money,” said Weldy. “They’ll pay for environmental studies and things like that that we won’t have to pay for. It’ll save us $20,000 to $30,000 or maybe a little more when it comes to that.”
