Beginning tonight and continuing on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights through Sept. 7, the Cribari Bridge in Saugatuck will be closed to vehicles from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. for emergency repairs.
The chamber maintains that those closures could adversely affect the local businesses in Saugatuck, as people will look to find alternative routes and areas to populate.
“The loss of three or four tables a night adds up over the weeks this will occur,” said Chamber Executive Director Matthew Mandell. “Residents making an effort to still go to Saugatuck and have dinner will help out our local establishments. It’s really just a detour away.”
Local artist Miggs Burroughs donated his time to create a logo for the campaign.
