Congressman to visit Marseilles Lock and Dam

Millions of dollars in repairs are planned for the Marseilles Lock and Dam.  Congressman Adam Kinzinger visits Marseilles Thursday morning to talk about the $35 million from the U. S. Army Corp of Engineers to complete repairs. The lock and dam were damaged by runaway barges during flooding last April.

Kinzinger is meeting at City Hall at 10:15am to review the project with Rock Island Army Corp Commander Mark Deschenes, Marseilles mayor Patty Smith and members of Team Rubicon.
