The
new Steel Street Bridge opened to vehicle traffic the
morning of August 19, 2002. The new structure would have two
12-foot traffic lanes, two bike lanes, and two 10-foot
sidewalks. The photo at right shows the view southbound on
the completed bridge (13Sep02).
This
photo is of the expansion joint at the south end of the
bridge (13Sep02). The joint is where the deck meets the
approach slab.
The
north end of the new bridge (13Sep02).
Looking
north along the east side of the bridge (13Sep02). In this
photo you can see the fencing that was used along the sides
of the bridge, as well as one of the large, concrete
"monuments" in the middle of the bridge. In the middle of
the monument is an in-wall fire hose connection.
Another
view of a monument, looking west off the bridge along
northbound I-25 (13Sep02).
Southbound
on I-25 at the completed bridge (13Sep02). Note the large,
white sign announcing the street name. Other T-REX bridges
are getting a similar sign, and I've never seen anything
else like it.
