The next full nighttime closures on Route 1 at the north end of Fort Bragg at the Pudding Creek Bridge will occur Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 6-7, from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. Construction will escort emergency responders over the bridge during the full closures.
One-way traffic control at the Pudding Creek Bridge will be in effect on Sept. 5-8, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Motorists can expect up to 10-minute delays.
The safety project includes widening the Pudding Creek Bridge to accommodate two 12-foot wide lanes, two 8-foot wide shoulders, two 6-foot walkways and new bridge railings.
The project also includes “Complete Streets” improvements by constructing sidewalks on both sides of Route 1 from Pudding Creek Bridge south to Elm Street and north to Pudding Creek Drive, drainage improvements and relocation of the City of Fort Bragg’s sanitary sewer line and waterline from the Pudding Creek Dam to Route 1.
