Bridges
Jacob Street / Broadway / Gray Street Bridge
Updated Jan 20, 2026
Key Issues Identified
- Deck separating from the beams
- Beams are expanding into the abutment backwalls, causing damage
- Abutments have wide cracks and large spalling, i.e. flaking and chipping
- Bearings are over-expanded and misaligned
Inspection rating
Poor
Meaning at least one of its main components (deck, superstructure, or substructure) requires significant maintenance and repair to remain safe. Inspection is current every 3 months.
