VDOT upgrades bridge over I-395
The Virginia Department of Transportation has completed the rehabilitation of the bridge on Duke Street over Interstate 395 in the Lincolnia area.
The contractor, Martins Construction of Falls Church, replaced the concrete bridge deck and beams, upgraded the westbound sidewalk to a shared-use path, and widened the eastbound sidewalk.
Funding for the $16.4 million project came from federal and state sources, including the Federal Transit Administration’s State of Good Repair program.
VDOT says the bridge project is expected to give drivers a smoother ride and extend the overall life of a bridge that carries about 47,000 vehicles a day.
