A dozen more concrete beams are to be delivered this week for the I-69 bridge project. WNIN’s John Gibson has the latest:
Officials say the big beams will be delivered and set for the third and final bridge that’s being built as part of the I-69 Ohio River Crossing approach on the Evansville side.
The beams range in length from 134 to 163 feet long.
Four beams are expected to be delivered between Tuesday and Thursday, with one beam transported per truck.
They’ll be delivered in the afternoon and set the next day, with the work wrapping up on Friday.
As beams are delivered, two short-term rolling closures lasting five to ten minutes each are expected along U.S. 41 to Waterworks Road.
Officials say the final 32 beams for the bridge project are expected to be delivered over a two-week period early next year.
