Caltrans Environmental Senior Planner Jason Roach told the Daily Breeze “The bridge deck received a short-term fix in 2009 with a new polyester concrete overlay. But it’s starting to see cracks. It worked but another polyester overlay is not going to cut it.”
The current plans are underway with a certified roadway that would replace the 6.5” deteriorating road and should last 75 years. While in the process side railings will be updated to uphold current safety standards and a new median barrier will be installed while maintaining the original Emerald Green coat.
