This project is rehabilitating the Duke Street (Route 236) bridge over I-395. The bridge was originally built in 1965.

The improvements include:

  • Replacing the concrete bridge deck and beams
  • Upgrading the westbound sidewalk to a shared-use path
  • Widening the eastbound sidewalk

In August 2022, the Duke Street concrete roadway was repaired just west and east of I-395.

The bridge carries about 47,000 vehicles a day.

Estimated Costs
Preliminary Engineering - $1.3 million
Construction - $15.1 million
Total - $16.4 million

The project is financed with federal and state funding, including State of Good Repair funds used for bridges and pavement.
