It will fix the deck of the Myrtle Avenue Bridge and add up to two lanes in each direction on I-95.
The Myrtle Avenue Overpass bridge is a historic landmark, built almost 70 years ago, in 1955. It’s the only remaining steel-tied arch bridge in the state.
There are two opportunities to attend a public meeting, ask questions, and share thoughts on the project.
