There will be no 210 Freeway closures in November due to construction work on the Gold Line bridge, officials have announced. Following completion of the three deep foundations (in photo below right), work has begun on excavating the foundation from the old bridge.
The Authority requested the amendment which allows the design and preconstruction work to start while continuing efforts to complete the last funding agreement conditions related to assemblage of the Maintenance and Operations facility real estate. Currently, price and terms have been agreed with all but a single private property owner. The city of Monrovia has been barred from considering the Authority’s terms of purchase until after the State Supreme Court rules on pending lawsuits surrounding state redevelopment agencies; a decision is expected in January.
