Night work to pave shoulders to begin following the Labor Day weekend
The contractor plans to implement nighttime lane restrictions so the right shoulders of the bridge can be paved in each direction. This work is to prepare to shift both directions of traffic away from the median.
Shoulder paving is expected to take several nights to complete, after which a long-term traffic shift will be in place on the bridge, with two 11-foot lanes maintained in each direction. No traffic shift currently is in place.
