Hundreds of residents gathered to celebrate as the historic Five Span Bridge in Mississippi Mills reopened following a two-year reconstruction project. CTV's Camille Wilson speaks with Joann Hall, whose great-grandfather Stephen DeLillo helped build the original stone structure in 1901. Attendees were given the opportunity to take home original pieces of stone from the restoration project as a keepsake. The heritage bridge is currently partially open and will fully reopen to vehicle traffic in the coming weeks.
