March 2009 Project Update
Construction on the bridge continues to move forward. The construction of pile foundation supports for the bridge is continuing at a rapid pace and should be completed in the near future. Setting of the support beams will immediately follow. The final riding surface will be constructed in sections as the support beams are put in place and is now halfway complete.
As these efforts progress, increased construction adjacent to the existing bridge and in the waterway can be expected. For safety reasons, there will be short time periods when the channel will be closed to marine traffic. The channel continues to remain open during weekends.
Figure A shows a completed portion of the newly constructed bridge. Construction of the bridge is currently ahead of schedule. Figure B shows an osprey enjoying a fish along the newly constructed bridge. The design-build team has taken steps throughout this project to minimize environmental impacts that would disturb area wildlife.
