Closing the Johnson Road bridge would cause emergency vehicles to detour to the Spring Center Road bridge, 1.33 miles to the east, or the Genoa Road bridge, about 1.52 miles to the west. That, he said, equates to between 4 and 4 ½ minutes of additional travel time for vehicles.
Ambulance service, which is run out of the District 2 station in that area, would be affected the same way, Chief Johnson said.
