West Corridor Construction Moves Forward

Construction on the West Corridor has taken another big step forward as the first girders were put in place for the Kipling light rail bridge.  A total of seven girders, each 55 tons and 120 feet long, are used to construct the bridge.  Activities later this summer will yield more progress as five more light rail and pedestrian bridges are built.  To keep up with construction on the West Corridor, visit the construction page of the West Corridor section of the Web site.
