Residents near the Edgewater Bridge are bracing for a new phase of demolition, which is set to intensify the already ongoing work, starting the week of May 26. This part of the project involves dismantling the bridge's abutments, columns, and girders, according to the official city notice.

Operations are scheduled to take place between 7 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, although these dates and schedules have the propensity to shift. The contractor handling the demolition is Granite Construction, a detail confirmed in the city's announcement.

Residents have been advised to prepare for "additional truck traffic to remove demolished concrete." While the noise and disruption are a given, the city has extended its apologies and gratitude for the patience and understanding of those affected, as per the City of Everett.

Concerned locals or those curious about the project's progress can reach out to Kathleen Baxter at [email protected] or call (425) 257-8875 for inquiries. The city notice strongly encourages community members to stay informed by signing up for updates on the Edgewater Bridge Replacement Project via the Everett website.
