September 2009 Project Update
The new SR 46 Bridge over Lake Jesup has been opened to travelers since August 1, 2009. The old bridge and causeway is no longer accessible to the public and demolition has begun. Final ties from the new SR 46 to the Cameron Wight Park/Old Geneva Road and Osceola Road have been completed. Construction will continue to complete the remaining permanent items and demolition of the old causeway and bridge will continue for several months.
Construction activities adjacent to the new bridge and waterway will continue. For safety reasons, there will be short periods of time when the channel will be closed to marine traffic. The channel will remain open on the weekends.
Motorists should remain alert for lane shifts or closures and should use extreme caution when driving through construction areas. Motorists are also advised to be on the lookout for construction equipment entering and leaving the highway.
Below are two aerial photos showing the beginning demolition of the old bridge.
