We wrapped up May with some important structural adjustments and preparation for steel installation at the Waterway Village Pedestrian Bridge!Here's an update on where we stand as of June 1:๐๐จ๐๐๐ฐ๐๐ฒThe concrete and roadway contractors will return to the site in Fall 2026. The final asphalt wearing surface for the north side of E. 2nd St. will be constructed after the bridge superstructure is built and placed over the ICW. The areas on the north side of E. 2nd St. in and around 25th Ave will be completed alongside the BASE section following that bridge superstructure placement.๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ ๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐งThis area is currently under revision as the contractor has decided to modify the anchor bolt layout on the west side of the South Bridge Bent to properly accommodate existing spacing.๐๐ฅ๐๐ฏ๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐๐ซ๐ฌThe submittal process and procurement remain ongoing, and we are seeing great progress on the towers' steel infrastructure:๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐๐ซ: Crews are actively constructing various steel elements, including the exterior panel framing, stairs, and the walking platform that will eventually connect the elevator tower to the pedestrian bridge.๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ก ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐๐ซ: The contractor is preparing to move over to the North Elevator Tower next week to begin installing its steel components.๐๐จ๐ง๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ: Plans are also in place to begin pouring concrete for the stairs on the South Elevator Tower next week.๐๐ซ๐๐๐๐ข๐ ๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ฌThe south side of E. 2nd St. remains open to normal traffic operations. For motorists traveling north of the ICW, please remember that access is limited to local traffic only during the pedestrian bridge superstructure construction phase.๐๐ฐ๐จ-๐๐๐๐ค ๐๐จ๐จ๐ค ๐๐ก๐๐๐Over the next 14 days, teams will continue fabricating the South Elevator Tower steel components and kick off steel work on the North Elevator Tower. Expect to see periodic welding inspections on-site to verify the integrity of the new steel construction. Looking slightly further ahead, construction of the main pedestrian bridge superstructure is planned to begin in early July once all tower steel components are finalized. Baldwin EMC: 800-837-3374
