First Replacement Deck Concrete Pour Completed For Pensacola Bay Bridge

January 15, 2021

Repairing the bridge requires repair or replacement of eight full spans and 14 partial spans. Each full span is 150-feet long, 59-feet wide, and weighs approximately two million pounds. The Pensacola Bay Bridge has a targeted re-opening date of March 2021. Once repairs are complete, all four lanes will be open with no load restrictions.

    I thought each section was prestressed concrete slabs. Why are they pouring the replacement slabs. Will they be as strong as prestressed slabs????????????

    Phillip, 73 more days until the end of March, or just over 10 weeks. Like You, I am hopeful it is reopened by then and I am keeping everything crossed.

    oh don’t be a cynical charlie. We all have our fingers crossed that the repairs will be made correctly and completed on time!

    More like a June reopening date.
