About this project
The upcoming resurfacing project on the Hwy 212 bridge, located 0.1 mile east of Hwy 23 in Granite Falls, will focus on improving the condition of the bridge, providing a smoother driving surface, and extending the bridge's lifespan. The work will take place in two main phases: lane closures and full bridge closures, with specific traffic impacts listed below.
Traffic impacts
During the resurfacing work, the following traffic management strategies will be in place:
Overview of Lane Closures:
Throughout most of the project, one half of the bridge will be closed, while the other half remains open. This will allow for continuous traffic flow in both directions, with one half available during the majority of the bridge work.
Full Bridge Closure for First Lane Curing: Completed
After resurfacing the first half, the entire bridge will be closed for approximately two weeks to allow the new surface to cure properly. Traffic will be detoured during this time, as vibrations from vehicles can interfere with the curing process.
Full Bridge Closure for Second Lane Curing: Completed
Once the first half is cured and reopened, work will begin on resurfacing the second half. Once resurfaced, the bridge will be fully closed again for approximately two weeks to allow the second lane's surface to cure. Curing ensures the pavement hardens and sets successfully, extending the bridge's lifespan.
