SUMMARY:Barton Springs Road Bridge Project Open House
DESCRIPTION:Austin Public Works is providing the community with a rescheduled in-person update on efforts to address the existing bridge over Barton Springs Rd. near Zilker Park. Following a postponement in March due to weather\, this meeting will take place Tuesday\, April 4\, at the McBeth Recreation Center. The project team will share information on the needed improvements and gather community input.\n \nFor those who are unable to attend\, a virtual public meeting is available here.\n \n—————– \nAbout the Barton Springs Road Bridge Project: \nThe City of Austin is planning for improvements to Barton Springs Road Bridge to provide mobility enhancements for all users. \nWhile the existing Barton Springs Road bridge is in fair condition structurally\, many of its features are functionally obsolete and require rehabilitation or replacement to ensure safety and longevity. Given that the existing bridge presents mobility challenges for vehicles\, bikes and pedestrians\, this project will provide needed mobility enhancements for all users. Intersection improvements to nearby Barton Springs Road and Azie Morton Drive are necessary as part of this project.\n\n \nIn November 2020\, Austin voters approved $102 million for major infrastructure projects\, with the possibility of allocating a portion of that funding to address the Barton Springs Road Bridge. The project is currently funded for completion of preliminary engineering\, including finalizing a Bridge Conceptual Engineering Report (BCER)\, as well as developing a design for a preferred solution (rehabilitation of existing bridge or reconstruction of a new structure.) Future funding needs to be identified to move forward with construction.
