Alabama bridge project being proposed again
31 December 2021
New proposals have been put forward for the Mobile River bridge project in the US state of Alabama. The project was stopped in 2019 over concerns of the construction cost as well as for the high cost of tolls to drivers to use the link.
The cost of construction for the new bridge has not been revealed as yet, but the earlier plan was expected to cost as much as US$2 billion. The project will include the bridge itself as well as a new road connection.
The original plan was for an 800m bridge carrying three lanes of traffic for I-10 in either direction. Construction was to have been carried out under the PPP model, a first for Alabama.
