Bridge Projects

The Earthquake Ready Burnside Bridge project is in design. Projects are underway on the Hawthorne and Morrison, and we are seeking input on replacing the Stark Street Bridge over the Sandy River.

Earthquake Ready Burnside Bridge

We are taking the lead in making the Burnside Bridge earthquake-ready. In 2026 we will complete key design work. The project will ensure we have a bridge that can withstand a major earthquake and remain open to all forms of travel.

Morrison Bridge Strengthening

We are adding titanium rebar to strengthen approaches to the Morrison Bridge, and replacing the motors and brakes that open and close the movable span.

Hawthorne Bridge Control System Upgrade

We are replacing the control system that opens and closes the Hawthorne Bridge and upgrading its electrical system.

Stark Street Bridge Replacement

We are collecting public input and developing alternatives to replace the Stark Street Bridge over the Sandy River.
