The state seems to be getting
serious about fixing bridges across Massachusetts including the ones that are literally crumbling in our neighborhood. The Accelerated Bridge plan lists the following:
| Description | Preliminary Estimate | Design Start | Design Complete | Start of Construction | End of Construction |
|---|
BOSTON- DECK AND SUBSTRUCTURE REPAIRS, B-16-011, NORTH HARVARD STREET OVER
CHARLES RIVER (LARZ ANDERSON BRIDGE) | $15,870,000 | Winter-2009 | Winter-2010 | Winter-2010 | Summer-2014 |
| BOSTON- DECK AND SUBSTRUCTURE REPAIRS, B-16-010, WESTERN AVENUE OVER CHARLES RIVER (WESTERN AVENUE BRIDGE) | $6,770,000 | Winter-2009 | Winter-2010 | Winter-2010 | Summer-2011 |
| BOSTON- DECK AND SUBSTRUCTURE REPAIRS, B-16-006, CAMBRIDGE STREET OVER CHARLES RIVER (RIVER STREET BRIDGE) | $15,930,000 | Summer-2009 | Winter-2011 | Winter-2011 | Summer-2014 |
| If these repairs actually happen it will be a great opportunity to both repair these bridges and make additional improvements to get pedestrians, bikes, and cars from one side of the river to the other in a much better fashion than the current bridges do. |  |
