Obama's stimulus plan, probably. Plus we do have a budget now. The next one is due in June. Sigh.

I just took a look at the description of the project on the Caltrans District 2 web site (http://www.dot.ca.gov/dist2/).  It will be a new five-lane bridge (2 lanes northbound and 3 lanes southbound -- just like the current one), but on a new alignment.  It will therefore supersede the existing bridge.  Caltrans says that the existing bridge is nearing the end of its design life.

If you look for it yourself on the District 2 web site, note that Caltrans refers to it as the "Antlers Bridge Replacement."

No, that's not the bridge I was talking about.

This one is:

It's called the Pitt River Bridge, not the Antlers Bridge.

I actually do remember reading about this in TCR's on district 2's website. The current TCR for I-5 is June 2008, but I know there was an older TCR that listed the project as well.

For your further reading enjoyment all the TCR's by district (that are available online) at:

Transportation Concept Report. It details the desired facility for a route within a certain time period and the "ultimate" facility for the route. Justifications, projects, and other details are also included in the reports.

Both of the bridges are neat but they do need replacements, it was scary going over them.
