A bridge in Keokuk County has been dedicated to an Iowa State Trooper who was killed in the line of duty. The Sergeant Eric J Stein Memorial Bridge crosses the Cedar River on Highway 21 north of the Highway 92 junction. Sigourney Fire Chief Bill Halleran says the dedication process started with him putting together a proclamation, which was then approved by the Keokuk County Board of Supervisors and the Department of Transportation.

The sign next to the bridge was purchased by emergency agencies in the county.
