The Second Tacoma Narrows Bridge Project

In Tacoma, Washington a second Tacoma Narrows is scheduled to be constructed along side the existing structure.  Construction is on track to begin early 2001, with a projected cost of $350 million.

 

Palm Beach International Airport Interchange

The PBIA project will consist of 14 new bridges, with the total length of the project being 1.8 miles, 2.9 km.  The total construction cost is $109 million, and the project is slated to begin in June, 2000.

 

Carquinez Bridge- San Jose, California

After 72 years a new $200 million dollar twin-tower suspension bridge will replace the original Carquinez Bridge in the San Francisco Bay area.  Construction on the new project is expected to begin in March 2000.

Check this new kind of Bridge being built. An Inverted Tee Girder (IT-Girder) Bridge. What is that?  Click on title and find out!

This two hundred million dollar project is in its early stages yet.  There are 4 different bridge types be decided upon.  The 4 choices are cable stayed, suspension, steel truss, and concrete box girders.  As of August 22, 1999 it looks like steel truss is out of the running and it is a dead heat among the other three.  The bridge type will be decided by October 5, 1999.  On October 6, 1999 BridgePros was informed, by e-mail, that the choice was for a cable stay bridge!

New Colorado River Bridge 

The Federal Highway Administration is preparing an environmental impact report for a $198-million bridge spanning the Colorado River about 1,500 ft downstream of Hoover Dam in Nevada. The project is aimed at unclogging a bottleneck along the major commercial route linking Arizona, Nevada, and Utah. Thanks to Helena Russell with Bridge Design & Engineering for providing us with information on this project. We will be adding a new page on this project soon.  Until then here is one link http://www.hooverdambypass.org/.
