Project Details Hood Canal Bridge Retrofit & East Half Replacement
Project started in July 2003 The $499 million Hood Canal Bridge renovation project started in July 2003. The scope of work includes replacing the east half of the floating structure, widening the existing west half roadway decks, replacing both existing bridge approaches, replacing both transition truss spans, renovating three existing pontoons, casting and setting concrete anchors, and providing a new control system for the entire bridge. The approach replacement and west side widening was completed at the end of 2005. The new pontoons were constructed at Concrete Technology's Tacoma graving dock, while new anchors were finished and set in Hood Canal during the summer of 2007. The rehab of three existing pontoons is occurring at the Port of Seattle's Terminal 91. The assembly and outfitting of the new drawspan has begun at Todd Shipyard. The bridge is scheduled to be closed for 6-8 weeks in the summer of 2009 to remove and replace the east half floating structure. The final scope to be completed is the rehab work on the west half drawspan which will occur in the summer of 2010.
