The purpose of the project is to replace the existing bridge to improve the condition of the structure. The bridge is located at mile point 0.08 on Hendricks Causeway (CR 124), and it is a four-span bridge (one riveted steel through girder floor beam stringer span with a reinforced concrete deck, and three longitudinal stringer spans with a reinforced concrete deck). The bridge has undergone repairs including the addition of a chain-link fence in 1977 and a more significant rehabilitation in 1996.

THE PROPOSED PROJECT

• The bridge will be replaced with a three span structure removing the pier on Remsen Place
• The new bridge will accommodate three 12-foot through lanes (two eastbound and one westbound), 6-foot outer shoulders, and 9-foot, 8-inch shared use path eastbound and an 8-foot shared use path westbound (meets Complete Streets guidelines). 
• Proposed bridge piers will be set outside 25-foot impact zone for AREMA (American Railway Engineering and Maintenance Right-of-Way Association) The profile provides vertical clearance for future track upgrades.
