Bridge Projects Begin in Corpus Christi, Greenville, Timmins, Fairport

The Corpus Christi City Council has approved nearly $11.8 million in funding to transform a deserted train trestle into a pedestrian bridge over Oso Bay, as part of the Holly Road Train Trestle to Tourism Trail Project. The total project cost is estimated at $13.6 million and is expected to include a shared-use path along Flour Bluff Drive, enhancing access for pedestrians and cyclists. City officials, including Councilwoman Kaylynn Paxson, emphasize the project's importance for the community, which values local environmental spaces. Meanwhile, in Timmins, work is beginning on the replacement of a deteriorating bridge on Finn Road, with a focus on maintaining the structure until its replacement in 2027. In New York, the State Department of Transportation has started a $3.4 million bridge replacement project on State Route 250 in Fairport, aiming to improve community safety and accessibility. Additionally, the South Carolina Department of Transportation is preparing for a significant construction project on the Church Street bridge in downtown Greenville.
