End in Sight for Seventh Street Bridge Construction

摘要

June 7 marked the beginning of the end. That was the day that Fort Worth's Seventh Street Bridge closed in order to remove the existing 1913 bridge and place the new deck. That date marked the countdown to complete the final details on the replacement bridge in a scant 150 days. "Using traditional design would've taken over a year, not 150 days," says Val Lopez, public information officer with the Texas Dept. of Transportation - Fort Worth District. The new bridge will open in November.
