Wells Street Bridge Officially Reopens

City officials on Thursday morning officially reopened Chicago's Wells Street Bridge to cars and pedestrians after a year-long reconstruction project.



"I want to thank all the commuters for their patience who have been waiting for months for this day," Mayor Rahm Emanuel said at the 6 a.m. press conference. "The good news is, this is ahead of schedule. This was supposed to actually open up December 1st. We're ahead of schedule and on budget."
