2023 Planned Projects
Project	Location	Update
South Footbridge Repair	The South Footbridge spans from South Island to Turtle Path.	The base work and inspections have been completed, and it was determined that the anchor blocks and plates are in good repair. Crews have backfilled the anchors, measured the suspension cables, and sent off the measurements of the suspension cables to the manufacturer assembling the cables at their manufacturing facility. The new cable lengths are on backorder. Once shipped, the cables will be installed on the bridges. The anticipated delivery of the new cables is the end of May to the beginning of June. Upon receiving the cables, the contractor will return and remove the existing cables independently, reinstall the new cable, then tension and attach the stay cables to the bridge deck. Once the work has been completed, the site will return to pre-existing condition, including re-paving the walk ways up to the bridge on both sides. Marine traffic is permitted under the bridge; however, pedestrian traffic is not permitted at this time.
