The railroad bridge over Main Street in Batavia is getting a facelift thanks to the Village Association of Batavia.

The group has been planning to repaint the bridge since 1994, two years after the organization formed.

“The trestle has been in our vision for several years,” VOAB President Tony Thomas said. “We really just wanted to give it a nice coat of paint and maybe add a historical sign.”

Thomas said the group has plans to add a historic Batavia sign once funding is obtained.
