For the safety of the traveling motorists and the construction crews, the bridge will be closed from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. on Monday, April 29 and Tuesday, April 30. These nighttime closures are necessary for crews to perform bridge work associated with the pedestrian improvements.
As part of the Phase I construction plan, the bridge will be reduced to one lane in both northbound and southbound directions for crews to complete this phase of the project. Phase I construction activities are expected to be completed in December 2024.
Electronic message boards will be used to make motorists aware of lane closures and alternate routes that can be used.
Please note that the work schedule is subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstances.
