Charles Berry Bridge Closing Update

The "Pathfinder" leaves port, 7:30 a.m. on May 1, 2008.
5/1 -- • The 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. lane closures can be done at any time, Monday through Friday, throughout the project, at the discretion of the contractor, as needed for work on the bridge or to mobilize equipment. The plan notes simply state that the lane closures must be restricted to these time frames to avoid the morning and evening rush hours. This week, starting on April 27th, the contractor is doing work in the bridge buildings and that doesn't require any lane closures.
