<br />Million
<br />This project required the demolition and construction of a six -lane bascule bridge over the environmentally
<br />sensitive Miami River. A significant component of the Miami Riverfront revitalization, the project was built
<br />in six phases during 930 days. In order to maintain traffic on the existing bridge, the first half (northbound)
<br />was constructed downstream of the existing bridge. Once this was complete and operational, traffic was
<br />switched to the new structure and the existing structure was demolished, allowing room for the second half
<br />of the bridge (southbound).
