Since the bridge was rebuilt many years ago, the City of Elk River and Wright County have shared maintenance duties. Since 2002, this agreement has been entered into annually; therefore, Wright County is asking the City of Elk River to once again enter into a maintenance agreement for the Parrish Avenue Bridge during 2009. The agreement is exactly the same as the agreement entered into in past years.

These include maintenance of the street lights, removal of snow from the sidewalk, maintenance of the slope and berms on the north approach, snow and ice control from bridge and approaches, and removal of marking/spray paint from visible surfaces of bridge structure.
