Rehabilitation work is underway on Mission Bridge to extend its life by about 35 years.  Work requires some lane reductions and an eventual complete closure of the bridge to motorists. People driving, walking or wheeling in the area are asked to please follow construction detour signs for their safety and that of construction crews.  Cyclists are reminded to please dismount when crossing the bridge. 

A full bridge closure is anticipated in mid-to-late Fall 2024 and will last for about six months and is anticipated to reopen later in the Spring of 2025.  While the bridge will be closed to motorists, pedestrians, cyclists and other wheelers will still be able to cross the bridge using select sidewalks. This fall/winter closure is necessary to complete the work as safely and efficiently as possible. This may impact how students get to school this fall and throughout the school year.

Overall project completion is expected in Winter 2025. Planning for how your child will get to school is strongly recommended. We recommend parents visit the project page for updates on construction and detours; you can also subscribe to the project newsletter which is sent directly to subscribed email accounts when a new detour is announced.

If driving directly to the school is required, allow extra time as many vehicles will be travelling through the area.
