Providence Road Bridge Demolition and Replacement

under construction

The project involves demolishing the existing Providence Road bridge over Interstate 70 in Columbia, Missouri, followed by the construction of a new overpass bridge. The demolition work is scheduled to start at 9 p.m. on Friday and expected to finish by 9 a.m. Sunday, with major traffic impacts including lane reductions and ramp closures. The new bridge will be longer to accommodate three lanes in each direction on I-70, raised for increased vertical clearance, and will include sidewalks, lighting, and safety improvements. The replacement construction is estimated to take about five months.
