McGraw St Bridge Seismic Project Updates

Construction update: October 1, 2024

Construction on retrofits to help the McGraw St Bridge better withstand earthquakes is complete! The *bridge has been reopened* for people walking, biking, rolling, and driving. Over the past 9 months, crews worked on a variety of retrofits to reduce the McGraw St Bridge’s vulnerability to earthquakes:


* Installed carbon fiber wrapping to strengthen the bridge’s crossbeams, columns, and arches
* Strengthened the existing arch with a concrete infill wall
* Installed concrete blocks and supportive shells on the bridge’s columns and crossbeams
* Repaired cracks and damaged concrete
* Replaced the expansion joints at both ends of the bridge

You can also see the photos below showing what the bridge looks like after our seismic retrofit!
