An update on the new Harbor Bridge project was presented to a group of Westside business owners on Wednesday.
During the presentation, a representative of Flatiron Dragados said the project is still expected to be completed by next year.
Two massive towers visible from across the city are visual proof of the progress that’s been made.

“We also have a big milestone on the cable stay bridge on the north side coming up where we will be completing the last of 20 upper tower lifts that will complete the proposed bridge height and tower height of 536 feet,” said Lynn Allison the Flatiron Dragados representative.
The bridge will also have 3 northbound and 3 southbound lanes.
It will also have 10-foot-wide pedestrian walkways with barriers on each side.

That will lead to detours beginning after spring break.
