Bridge design and enhancements

From ODOT-

Meeting since 2008, members of the Citizen Advisory Group and Project Development Team have provided invaluable input regarding bridge design and enhancements in the open space surrounding the bridge. Recently they approved a request for proposals for art to be installed above the deck -- that is, next to Interstate 5 just north or south of the bridge. They also agreed to the next steps for development of art pieces on the south and north banks of the Willamette River.


Pictured below are two of the enhancements currently being developed. Additional information can be obtained by going to our website at http://www.willamettebridge.org/ as well as participating in opportunities early next year to view refinements to these and other concepts. We will keep you informed as meetings are scheduled.

The columns have been recommended based on having some remains of the old structures in place reminding current and future citizens of previous bridges that were here along with something to compare the new columns to.

The dovetail designs for the path represents the passing from one city to the next while at the same time showing the two communities are linked by the connection of the paths under the bridges.

We are excited to watch these designs progress and look forward to the public conversations that will contribute to them.
