Sangamon County Shares New Aerial Update for Woodside–Iron Bridge Construction

Sangamon County has published its latest aerial update for the Woodside–Iron Bridge Road project, releasing new drone footage documenting construction activity throughout November. The video provides a clear overhead look at how the work zone has continued to develop, capturing ongoing earthwork, bridge preparation, and the reshaping of roadway sections along the corridor.

Providing these monthly updates is part of the County’s commitment to keeping residents informed as one of the region’s most significant transportation projects moves forward. The drone footage allows the public to see progress that is often not visible from nearby roads and provides a consistent reference point for tracking how the project evolves from month to month.

The Woodside–Iron Bridge project aims to improve safety, roadway capacity, and long-term reliability for motorists traveling between Woodside Road and Iron Bridge Road. Construction began earlier this year after extensive planning and coordination, and work will continue into 2026 with phased improvements to the roadway, drainage systems, and bridge structures.

Residents can view the November video and access previous updates, project background, and contact information through the Woodside–Iron Bridge project page at sangamonil.gov/woodside-iron-bridge. The County will continue releasing monthly footage as construction progresses.
