Astorino will be on site to welcome the arrival of the last beams. Each of the seven beams is one hundred feet-long and weighs more than 100,000 lbs. They are the last major component to be placed before the bridge is completed in August.

The $55 million bridge replacement is the largest road and bridge project ever undertaken by the county, creating hundreds of construction jobs and improving the safety and vitality of area.
