Project Need: The bridge structure has deteriorated and needs to be replaced. There is a lack of bike lanes on the bridge and a wooden walkway on only one side.

Project Description: This project will replace the existing bridge with a new bridge wide enough to accommodate pedestrians and cyclists (on both sides) along with vehicles. Environmental regulations will require a new bridge to be significantly higher and longer than the current bridge, which may necessitate some rework of the existing Fanno Creek Trail just west of the bridge.

Project Update:  Design and permitting activities are underway. The right-of-way and easement acquisition phase is anticipated to begin in late 2025. 

Project Funding: Gas Tax and a combination of City Gas Tax, Transportation System Development Charges (SDC), and Stormwater, Sanitary Sewer, and Water Funds.

Operations and Maintenance Impact: Increased pavement area and striping maintenance, reduced bridge maintenance.
