The Emergency Bridge Fund addresses unfunded bridge needs and provides the City with the ability to repair, replace, or rehabilitate a bridge that presents serious deterioration issues or safety concerns to the travelling public. Historically, Emergency Bridge Funds have been invested in replacement design and construction efforts. The funds have enabled the City to leverage other funding sources, advance design efforts on B-List projects, and address serious bridge needs.
