The City is moving forward with the replacement of
the 42' Ave South Bridge and is in the design phase
of the project. We want community members to have
a say on elements of the new bridge's appearance,
including railings, paint color, lighting, and
landscaping. The top choices will allow us to design
a bridge with users in mind, applying the
community's preferences for what the new bridge
should look like! This collected information will be
part of the official Type, Size, and Location Report;
the first step in designing the new bridge.
