Just in time for the holidays: New Kingfisher Waterway Bridge in the City of Lighthouse Point is Now Open to Traffic Vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle traffic has been restored on this busy residential street fulfilling FDOT District 4's commitment to city officials that the replacement bridge would be to open before the Christmas holidays. All work on the $1.2 million project that replaced a 59-year-old off-system bridge over the Kingfisher Waterway is expected to be completed in early 2015. This project was a true partnership between the City, FDOT and the Broward MPO. Funding for the project was identified by the MPO and the District 4 Work Program and Bridge Inspection Offices. The city began design of the project, and in discussions with district staff the project transitioned to FDOT District 4. District 4 ultimately completed the design, let the contract and oversaw the construction. In addition to the new bridge, the project includes installing new drainage, upgrading curb and ramps to ADA requirements, and constructing and repairing sidewalks. Minor repairs were also made on the adjacent seawall and landscaping.
