FOX ISLAND BRIDGE REPAIR PROJECT

Expected to begin January 2023, the Fox Island Bridge girder repair project will focus on degraded bearings on the mainland end of the bridge, Pier 17 and Pier 20.

This work is expected to take 1.5 months total working days to complete, however, a pause in the work schedule is anticipated due to material acquisition.
The bridge may be reduced to one lane with alternating traffic during active construction.
Flaggers will direct traffic as needed during work hours.
It is possible the bridge may be closed several times for short periods at night during the project.
We will provide notice prior to these short closures including variable message boards.
