Anticipated Impact

As the design is developed, more information will be shared about anticipated impacts to the project site. The current assumption is that the current bridge will remain in place, and the new bridge will be built adjacent to it. Demolition of the existing bridge is planned for after the new one is open, which will limit the potential impact on beach access.
